Panzerschreck captured in Normandy

Panzerschreck captured in Normandy
Here we see a Canadian sergeant posing with a Panzerschreck, or Rakentenpanzerbuchse 54, along with its 88mm rocket. This was an enlarged copy of the bazooka, and was produced in smaller numbers than the disposable Panzerfaust. This example was captured in the fighting after D-Day (early in Operation Overlord)
