RotorheadTX Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I was watching CNN's The Sixties documentary last night, and they were covering the time period surrounding the Kennedy/Khruschev struggles. In a brief clip detailing the Bay of Pigs invasion, they ran some film of a Hetzer (or G-13) driving along the shoreline of a beach. It was definitely a Hetzer, NOT an SU-85 or SU-100, as I know my armor. In any case, does anyone have information on how this beast might have been camouflaged or marked?? It would certainly make a WTF? of a model.... TIA Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
