The
Tigers Roar, Malinava, Latvia, July 22nd 1944 by David Pentland.
1st Lieutenant Otto Carius commanding 2nd Company of the
502nd heavy tank Battalion, with eight Tigers, advanced towards the
village of Malinava (a northern suburb of Dunaburg), to halt the Russian
advance. Following a reconnaissance Lieutenant Otto Carius explained his
plan to take the village. He decided to attack using only two tanks
because there was only one narrow road leading to the village. Six
Tigers therefore remained in the reserve while Lt Carius and Lt. Albert
Kerschers (one of the most decorated commanders of sPzAbt 502) tanks
moved towards the village. Speed was the essence and afterwards, Otto
Carius recalls that the entire battle did not last more than 20 minutes.
in this short time, Carius and Kerscher knocked out 17 of the new JS-1
Stalin and 5 T-34 tanks. Following this he deployed 6 of his tanks in an
ambush against the remainder of the Soviet tank battalion advancing toward
him, unaware of their lead companies demise. Surprise was complete and a
further 28 tanks were destroyed along with their supporting trucks and
vehicles, the complete battalion had been wiped out for no loss.

| The Death of Wittmann, St Aignan de Cramesnil, France, 8th August 1944 by David Pentland. Following an astonishing night march, the tanks of 1st Northamptonshire Yeomanry and men of 1st Battalion Black Watch found themselves ensconced in the village of St. Aignan de Cramesnil some 4 miles behind German lines. Shortly after noon a small group of Tiger I tanks were spotted advancing north by 3 Troop, A Squadron. Some minutes later Captain Boardman arrived in his Sherman I and when the enemy were within 800 yards he gave the order to open fire. The first two shots by the troops Firefly brewed up the rearmost target. After moving to a new position Trooper Joe Ekins fired again, knocking out a second Tiger. Finally he turned his attention to the remaining tank, destroying it with two more rounds. Unknown to the British tankmen at the time it is now believed that the last Tiger was that of the top German tank ace Hauptsturmfurher Michael Wittmann.
