StuG from Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 202 at Rzhev

During the second winter in Russia, the Besatzungen (crews) now wear proper winter clothing. They are from Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 202 (202nd Assault Gun Battalion), and their guns were named and painted with various animal names such as "Leopard" (Wachtmeister Fritz Amling), "Alligator" (Oberwachtmeister Richard Schramm), and "Jaguar" (Unteroffizier Klein). This picture was taken near Rzhev in November 1942.
