A Panzerkampfwagen III Ausf.E moves along a road, past a Panzer-Division’s headquarters (note the pennant on the right side of the photo, and the command pennant on the sedan parked behind the soldier at left). The panzer has a Notek black-out driving head-lamp in a most unusual position on the center of the glacis plate; normally these devices were fitted on the driver’s side fender. Note also that the soldier on guard duty at left is wearing the short ankle boots with gaiters, something not commonly seen when the Panzer III Ausf.E was a first-line panzer.
