 Nice find Save,I've seen a few others that were similar,remember they were dealing with "young" men,kids really,so the comic book approach was really a great idea.

   :salute

These are actually watered down.  If you find the full Tiger I manual, there are quite a few nude drawings in there.... soldier porn 1940's style.

 I can't remember who found it during Dawn of Battle Scenario, though.  

EDIT... FULL manual here...  http://tiger1.info/fibel/ (http://tiger1.info/fibel/)

Includes ranging charts for Allied main battle tanks, for 3,6,9 and 12 shots....and also the "danger" ranges for each Allied tank on the Tiger, if I'm not mistaken (From the German POV) "Ich werde abgeschossen" means basically "I'm shot"... "Das Betreten des Kleeblattes ist verboten" means "Entering the clover is forbidden (T34)"
