"Tiger Attack" on History Channel this eve

9:00pm on The History Channel.

This is a pretty decent show on the Tiger 1. It has an interview with Otto Carius and a bit of a look at Michael Wittmann, in the battle of Villers Bocage Evil [}:)]


Don't forget to set your VCR Robert! Wink [;)]

Tiger Attack!

Friday, January 30 @ 9pm ET/PT

Developed from a desperate need to turn the tide of war in his favor, Adolf Hitler was personally involved in the Tiger Tank, one of history's finest armored fighting vehicles.

With detailed color reenactments and interviews, we enter the Tiger's world and meet its crews that fought on every major battlefront in the European Theater.

The british tank commander who was blown out of his tank by Wittman was interesting to listen too. I don't think they mentioned what tank he was in at the time. And the other fellow who had an 88 round go between his legs... sheez. Really enjoyed this one.

I'm taping it now. When I'm done, I'll make mpegs clips of the archive scenes, start a yahoo group and post them there. (May take a few days.)

I'll post the url of the group here so you can join. There's lots of film clips, not just tigers.

The restored Tiger won't be of much interest, as it's not a real Tiger.
