The only tank the Germans had...according to books

[Toblakai]

I am sure we have all read books where the allied author states that "we were faced by several tigers" but I am re-reading a book "Tank Rider" and according to the author no matter what tank they faced it was a tiger. In one incident "we were faced by 13 tigers" and another "several tigers drove up to the woods". I believe that the author faced over 100 tigers so far and I am only 70% done with the book.

It really is true that to the allied soldier every German tank was a tiger isn't it.

I read that the allied (often?) confused a Panzer IV with a Tiger. Maybe that’s one of the reasons and I think that eyewitness reports need always a critical view
