This book tells, with firsthand accounts as well as numerous, never-seen-before photographs, the combat history of German Tiger Tank Battalion 503, the senior Tiger battalion of the German Army, equipped with both the Tiger I and the King Tiger. The battalion saw action in the attempted relief of Stalingrad, the tremendous tank engagements at Kursk, and the bitter fighting to relieve German units encircled at the Tscherkassy Pocket.

It then defended against the Allies in Normandy in 1944, and ended the war with desperate fighting in Hungary and Austria.
