Mark Aldrich Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 OK all, Besides the ONE photo in TANK BATTLES OF THE MIDDLE EAST WARS(1), does anyone have photos of the 5 Hummels they used? Mark
Scooter Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 No photos. But very interested in the topic. Please keep me looped in if you get some.. AC
Mark Aldrich Posted January 19, 2009 Author Report Posted January 19, 2009 Adam, Doubtful but trying. One would think there would be a website dedicated to the obscure but I have yet to find it. Mark
Scooter Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 From: http://www.achtungpanzer.com/hummel.htm It is unconfirmed but probably few Hummels found their way to Syria after the war." Its start. But if you have a picture then thats even better... can you scan and post it to this thread? AC
Mark Deliduka Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 I've been trying to find some pics of these as well. I have also been tryi9ng to find more pics of the rest of the German armor sent to Syria so I can model all of them too. Keep us all posted, and I'll try to post some pics that I come across as well.
Scooter Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Thanks. I have also heard of some Panzer III/IV's and I (think) some Panthers. I'll share what I find too..
Mark Aldrich Posted January 21, 2009 Author Report Posted January 21, 2009 I have shots of some panzer IVs. No IIIs however. Also a few of the Stug IIIs as well. I have one Hummel and I do not believe France ever sold any of the Panthers they had. Steven Zaloga and Mouse House state that Syria purchased 20-40 (depending on book) Panzer IVs and IIIs from France and Czechoslovakia.

I now have a picture of a Panzer IV L/70 ex Syrian Army on the Golan Heights in the 1980s.. Email me at ca920@sbcglobal.net for the image. AC
Mark Aldrich Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Posted February 28, 2009 AC, Email sent and dieing to see the photo. I have actually started a Middle East War Sig with a website. So this one will probably be added to it as well. Mark
