An abandoned Italian Semovente da 90/53 in Southern Italy, early 1944. This vehicle was inspired by the contemporary German Hornisse, the first SPG mounting the fearsome 88 mm gun. Italy had at that time their own good gun in the Cannone da 90/53 mod. 39. Its weight and size meant a revolving turret was not feasible, and mounting the gun in the middle of an M14/41 chassis would have been impossible due to stability problems. Hence, this solution with a somewhat modified chassis. The Semovente da 90/53 was ready for service before the end of April 1942, just a few weeks after the idea first emerged.

American M10 Tank Destroyers in their way to the Colosseum in Rome during the city's liberation on June 4, 1944. Being a cultural heritage, Rome was declared an open city by the Germans. Thus, the Americans didn't encounter any enemies in the Eternal City. The second picture shows the Colosseum from a different angle: a column of Panther tanks from I. /PR 4 approaches the former arena from the Via dei Fori Imperiali.

A destroyed PzKpfw VI of II. / s.Pz.Abt. 504 is obstructing Traversa Quarto, a road in Belpasso, Sicily in 1943. The company was moving through Belpasso when Feldwebel Kruse's tank suffered a technical failure and had to be knocked out. The tank was 3.56 meters wide and thus thoroughly blocked the street which is 6.50 meters wall to wall. Note the missing muzzle break which were considered a secret weapon at that time and thus were to be destroyed with highest priority.

An Italian Semovente da 47/32 L40 (47mm) light Tank Destroyer of the 131st Armoured Division 'Centauro' with a German Schwerer Panzerspähwagen (75 mm) Sd.Kfz. 233 somewhere in Tunisia. While in other armies the Reconaissance troops mainly were tasked to have eyes and ears on the enemy, the German Panzeraufklärer were also used to punch a whole into the enemy front. This is why the Panzerspähwagen were equipped with ever greater calibres.

Tough going for a Sherman IC Firefly of the Canadian Ontario Regiment advancing on San Angelo, Italy, in May 1944. Note the spare track segments to provided for some additional armour. The Firefly was fitted with the mighty QF 17 pdr AT gun. Because of some modifications regarding the recoil system and the wireless the turret had to be enlarged, sporting a characteristic bustle.
