Pak 36: The most effective Doorknocker @DasPanzermuseum

The 3,7-cm-Pak 36 is rather infamous for its inability to deal with heavy and well-armored medium Allied Tanks in France 1940 and the Soviet Union in 1941. Although, when used in France the troops in some cases were very happy with it. In this video we look at its history, capabilities, reception by the troops and aspects like crew positioning and training. If possible primary sources like original German Army Regulations were used as sources. Disclaimer: I was invited by the Panzermuseum Munster in 2020.
