Good morning all,

Article mentions engineer Ferdinand Porsche and Armaments Minister Albert Speer.

Not familiar with military historian Waldemar Trojca.

That is sadly one of the worst articles I've read on the Maus. Almost nothing substantial in the article is accurate.

Waldemar Trojca is a writer from Poland. One of his best books is on the SS Panzerkorp at Kharkov. He has a written dozens of books.

Interesting that the ease of steering was pointed out as described by the test drivers. Do we know what source Trojca gets this from?
