Formerly released as "One For the Trophy Case". . .The first Allied offensive to reach Tunisia had been forestalled by more than a month by German resistance. There had been several rumors of a new German tank, but because of General von Amim’s resistance to assist Rommel, the new wonder-weapon had been held in reserve since the arrival of Pzkw Vie ‘Tiger’ tank in Tunisia in November of 1942. On the morning of 31 January, a spotter for the British 72nd Anti-Tank Regiment sighted on the new Tigers headed his way. He immediately radioed for reinforcements. .
