#1: a quick maybe hard question Author: piney, Location: Republic of Southern New JerseyPosted: Wed Dec 26, 2007 5:52 pm ---- A friend of mine is thinking about buying the King & Country Elephant, but it is listed as being in Battle of the Bulge markings and he doesn't want any "creative" markings in his collection. we know they were used in the East and Italy but neither of us can ever recall seeing any reference to any at the Bulge. Yea? or Nay? I figure if any group in the world would know it would be ours. Thanks in advance

I don't think I have seen any claims that they were used anywhere in Northwest Europe. As AJ2 said all claims I have seen have been for Eastern front and Italy. Aberdeen's Elefant was captured in Italy.
