What's this, a Muslim-Nazi's anti-tank concept?(via StrangeCosmos.com)
UPDATE:
Tony from the UK actually answers the question, in the comments:
He is a German Paratrooper (Fallschirmjaeger); the weapon is a (in this case donkey-mounted!) "Panzerfaust"-a disposable, charge launched (not rocket propelled) anti tank weapon.Looking at the background there is a good chance the location is Crete, probably just after the successful, and only, German Airborne invasion "Operation Mercury", launched on 20th May 1941.
Thank you, Tony. I never dreamed that anyone would see the picture and know what's what about it.
Cool.
This blogging thing's quite the cat's pajamas, eh?
I guess the ass-borne weapon wasn't enough to save the Nazis from defeat. It also suggests that the Nazis were at the time devoid of any remaining ability to produce enough real equipment, including transporting it around the world and were forced to make do, much as the Taliban does today. I think it once again demonstrates the similarities between the Nazis and Islamic fascists... And one of the similarities is that they will both have lost the wars they started!
