Erwin Meierdrees & Panzer III in Kharkov

SS-Hauptsturmführer Erwin Meierdrees (left, Kommandeur I.Abteilung / SS-Panzer-Regiment 3 / SS-Panzergrenadier-Division "Totenkopf") gives order to attack in the command cupola of his Panzerbefehlswagen III Ausf.K mit 5 cm Kwk 38 L/42 during Kharkov campaign, February-March 1943. Standing at right is his adjutant, an unidentified SS-Untersturmführer. This PzBefWg III of Totenkopf's first Panzer-Abteilung's headquarters company shows a pristine new coat of white paint at the beginning of Kharkov operations. There is an even coat of camouflage over the whole vehicle, covering even the national insignia, leaving only a part of the driver's plate and the turret side unpainted to expose the divisional sign and turret numbers.
