I was really pleased to acquire this recently. It is an original 5 X 7 inch folded 'Crash Course' in the use of the German Panzerfaust, which was used (most notably by the Volksturm) in the defense of Berlin, as well as other battles. It was a very effective weapon against the T-34's of the Red Army as well as other Allied armored vehicles. I'm sure that most everybody has seen the films of German Women & Children being instructed in how to fire one of these as the Russians approached Berlin in 1945.
Always loved the look of the weapon, but they sure are scary as hell. ![]()
