Lightbulb Re: Shurzen

For my 2 pfennings worth, I wasn't involved in the previous disussions. Two thoughts occur, what about the screen type Shurzen in the latter part of the war, it would seem these were not aimed at ATR's but HEAT rounds? As well how many Panzers and StuG's actually retained their Shurzen once in battle, their seems to be a lot of photos that show some if not all missing. The Soviets even took to mounting bedsprings at least on some tanks. I have to wonder whether these measures were more to give the crews some sense of protection, as the addition of sandbags and tracks did for the crews using them.

Just some thoughts, Bob out
