Hi,
Me interests circumstances of destruction of this tank battalion. In Russian sources there are no mentions of exact date of rout of a battalion. The place of its destruction is not specified also. Provisional date - December 1942 - January 1943 is known. I know two photos of the destroyed tanks of this battalion. Under one information in Russian sources, 38 tanks of a battalion have got in an ambush where were domaged AT Rifles. What speak the Italian sources?
In advance thanks!
Best regards from Siberia!
I am sorry for my awful English.

In Russian sources known to me there is no mention of fights with tanks L6/40 or Semovente. It is very a pity, that it is not written in any way. Whether there are Italian clauses about operations of this battalion?Lupo Solitario wrote:for italian sources the battalion had not been destroyed in a specific place and date but was "consumpted" during the winter battles and retreats.
There must be an "official" date for dissolution of the unit but I ignore it
