    Hello everyone! As I have stated in my intro (over a year ago! :eek:), I am a miniture wargamer, heavily invested into Flames of Wr. My new army, a detachment from the 99th Infantry Battalion (Separate), was known for using cptured equipment in real life, however, there is a lack of definative evidence on what they used, with the exception of a captured Opel Maultier, which is why I thought I could get way with this. :D

    I wanted to use some German models to represent different units, but I want to be feasible to include these, so is there any evidence of the US using captured German tanks, other than my avatar?

    I doubt it. I'm sure somebody, somewhere, might have used German armor in some fixed camouflaged position, but with thousands of trigger-happy allied fighter-bombers cruising the sky any daylight use of German armor would have been madness.
