He's probably also confusing the big pipe with the Panzerfaust in places, don't ask me why - for all we know he may have been less than coherent at the time due to any combination of shock, wounds and heavy-handed interrogation methods.Kellomieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04915110653443066212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-13453313206146476222015-12-03T06:45:15.127-05:002015-12-03T06:45:15.127-05:00I know Ofenrohr is a common nickname for the panze...I know Ofenrohr is a common nickname for the panzerschreck, but suppose the next interrogated soldier talked about a panzerschreck there is a chance russians may assume its a different weapon, and even if not the first soldier can refer to the fact its a nickname. <br />Also I dont see how even the worst trained person can come to the conclusion that the Panzerschreck is single use, and I dont think you needed 3 men, nevermind giving the jobs of holding the weapon and aiming it to 2 different people. One aiming it and one with the next panzerschreck round ready seems to be enough, even from the viewpoint of a layman.

Not hard to see why when you recall the early models lacked the distinctive shield (which is why the users had to wear protection to avoid exhaust burns) and were thus little more than steel pipes with grips.Kellomieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04915110653443066212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-87517170714863339592015-12-02T09:30:28.156-05:002015-12-02T09:30:28.156-05:00Apparently the soldiers haven't been taught ve...Apparently the soldiers haven't been taught very well.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-15669201658001593882015-12-02T04:25:38.983-05:002015-12-02T04:25:38.983-05:00Well, that guy pulled a bunch of horseshit out of ...Well, that guy pulled a bunch of horseshit out of his ass.
