Actually it looks like a Stug III G rather than an F/8 .

I agree - it hasn't the box on the superstructure side, has steel top rollers and the drivers visor isn't correct for an F8.

Mark, do you have any information about this picture, beyond what's written on it? They've gone to a lot of trouble to recover a vehicle in wartime that clearly isn't obstructing the road. I wonder if it might have been being deliberately recovered for evaluation. However, it doesn't appear to match any of the obvious StuGs at APG, FK, etc. (particularly the steel return rollers).
