The War Winner by David Pentland. [Original Painting]

Memel Pocket, Lithuania, 5th - 16th October 1944. T-34's of the 5th Guards Tank Army, 1st Baltic Front, during the Soviet Memel Offensive, which aimed to drive a wedge between the German Army Group North and Centre. The ubiquitous T-34 was always in the vanguard of the fighting and regarded even by the likes of Von Kleist and Guderian as the best tank of the war. With various upgrades such as those shown in the painting, (a T-34/76 and the revised turret carrying an 85mm gun) the design served from beginning to the wars end, and beyond.
