Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill

OUTTA FUEL OR OUTTA LUCK:
Looks like these BA-10 armored cars have been abandoned by their crews, maybe due to breakdowns or lack of fuel.
The BA-10 was developed in the 1930s and was similar to the BA-3 and the BA-10 Heavy Armored Cars. Survivors were used as late as 1943 on the Leningrad Front. The BA-10 was armed w/1x45mm main gun mounted in a turret
and carried between 34 to 45 rounds of ammo.
Secondary armament 2x7.62mm DT machine guns w/2079 rounds of ammo one mounted in the hull, and the other was mounted co-axial in the turret. The Germans captured numbers of BA-10s and used them in the anti-partisan role, and were named Panzerspahwagen BAF 203 (r)
