Officers and soldiers of the Panzertruppen sharing a meal in the middle of North African desert. Squatting in the middle is Hauptmann der Reserve Johannes Kümmel (Führer I.Abteilung / Panzer-Regiment 8 / 15.Panzer-Division). He is wearing a captured British Commando sweater (early version). In the background is a Panzerkampfwagen III (5 cm L/42) Ausf.J. The picture was taken in the summer of 1942 by Kriegsberichter Klemens Valtingojer from PK (Propaganda-Kompanie) "Afrika".
