Maybe we should try sticking to the subject.  But that's just me.  I get his point.  But thanks for the correction.

I'm sure he's a big boy and can answer for hims........let's just stop right there.

The title said "Panther" and my mind said "F9F".  I know (almost) nothing about tanks.  My nephew used to drive M1A2s if that counts.

The Panther would fit between the Panzer and the Tiger, wouldn't it?
