12.SS Panther Ausf. D "219", Normandie June 1944
The four German photos all appear to show 12.SS Panther Ausf. D “219” in action in the Fonteny-le-Pesnil area of Normandie sometime between 9-11 June 1944, once the division had taken over the sector from Panzer-Lehr Division. The British photograph bottom right shows an identically matching chip in the bow Zimmerit, indicating this tank was knocked out within a few weeks later along the D675 to the north east of Tourville-sur-Odon on 27 June 1944, by the 227nd (Highland) Infantry Brigade, during Operation Epsom
