PaK40 & StuG III training

"Michael Gaißmair" and Finnish Armored Museum arranged a PaK40 and StuG III training weekend to our European friends.
This event took place in early October 2008 in Parola, near Hämeenlinna.

Program included lectures about PaK40 and StuGIII: pulling and pushing PaK gun to firing position, loading and firing procedures,
crew member functions, different ammunition, barrel cleaning and so on.
Lectures about StuG III teached us the crew positions, armament, driving, firing, as well as starting the motor manually.

Accomodation was in a real log bunker.
