“Photo shot by PK Jacobsen on Onderlangs, (Arnhem, September19). This is (…) the vehicle of Oberwachtmeister Josef Mathes, commander of the 3. Batterie of StuG-Brigade 280 - he is the helmeted man standing up in the turret. During the day, Mathes’ gun had received a direct hit from a Piat bomb on the armour plating - which did no harm except to produce a large dent and remove dome of the Zimmerit. The damage can be seen to the left of the gun.”
