      Panzer VI Königstigers of 3./schwere Panzer-Abteilung 503 having just been transported by rail from Mailly-le-Camp and de-trained at Gare de l’Est, Paris can be seen turning from Rue d’Aubervilliers into Boulevard de la Villette on their way to Mantes-la-Jolie to counter the Allied advance toward Paris.
      Saturday 12 August 1944.

      (Number ‘331’ is in the foreground following ‘332’)

      ‘331’ was lost near Avernes – Gadancourt, possibly on August 29
      ‘332’ also would have been attacked and knocked out by Allied air attacks and or destroyed by their crews after break downs, around that date.
