20230422 (52)_PIAT_fired

Two Sherwood Foresters rapidly reaqssessing their options after bringing a Projector Infantry Anti-Tank (PIAT) - literally an Action Man-style spring-operated bazooka launching a shaped charge projectile - into action towards a Tiger I but seeing it bounce off. Part of a scenario at The Tank Museum's Spring Tiger Day 2023 with running tanks and re-enactors dramatising the April 1943 action in which Tiger 131 (the actual Tiger in the scenario) was captured - just two days from the 80th anniversary.
