Best part is the obtaining of the 88.

There is anecdotal evidence that a similar confrontation did indeed occur between an officer from the Heer and a unit of Luftwaffe flak gunners.

It was Hans Von Luck during Operation Goodwood, there was a battery off 88s that could see the allied attack below them yet they did nothing as tanks are not planes. Hans pulled his revolver and stated either the 88s fire or he would fire. There is a documentary on UT about Goodwood with him, and his book is excellent.

Thanks! I knew I had read it somewhere.

RE: This is F***ING Awesome
So the easter eggs are: the license plate on the truck towing the 88 "how is my driving, call Von Kliest" and inside the KV is a sign "all employees must wash hands.".
WE'RE GOOD!

How long do you think the locomotive would have stayed on those tracks at that speed?
