    Interesting picture. I suspect it was taken on a tank driver training ground. Note the M13/40 sitting there. Anyway, the Pz II has a wood gas conversion unit mounted on it. The tall thing is the converter. It is a common mod on non-combat and civilian vehicles in Germany by 1944. I suspect the horizontal tubes cool and store the fuel as it is made (from the way they are connected).
    Some pics of this site from other angles would be most interesting.

    "Might be right?!" I am absolutely right on the wood gas generator part.

    On a side note. What are the markings on the turrets? And those aren't Italian ones that I can recognize offhand.

    The cross on the tank at the extreme right looks like a Hungarian cross green inner,white, red outer, but the overpainting of a red star on the other is odd, maybe result of capture.

    There is a least one other photo of this scene on the web somewhere.

    Actually if you look close enough it appears to not have a green interior but looks like a black cross outlined in white over the camoflauge of the turret.

    What is that unit marker on the tank behind the wood gas conversion vehicle? It looks like a star in the center of the Prussian cross!
