The soldiers and tank are of the 2nd SS Panzergrenadier Division "Reich." The soldier in the left foreground is holding 3 kilogram Haft-Hohlladung magnetic anti-tank hollow charge weapon. It was designed to be placed on the side of its target and fired by means of a short delay detonator. Three magnets held it to the target.
