German Panther Ausf. G tank
Captured by Polish insurgents - soldiers of the "Zośka" battalion on August 2, 1944.
The tank was given insurgent markings and named "Pudel" - after the pseudonym of Tadeusz Tyczyński who died that day.
However, this name did not catch on among the crew of the tank, which was eventually named "Magda".
A large, white-and-red checkerboard and an insurgent anchor were painted on the front of the vehicle.
The inscription "Pudel" also remained on the right fender.
