This painting and poem is based on a photograph that was taken in 1974 of a 2nd Armored Division Sherman tank in a field between Magoster and Beffe, Belgium. It was a casualty of the 2nd SS-Panzerdivision in the Ardenne in January of 1945.

 

"By this fence near a quiet wood, 

I sit alone where once I stood, 

Beside my brothers in a row; 

As Panzers attacked from the treeline below.

 

The farmland echoed the sound of war, 

Where only peace had been before, 

 And here where things are meant to grow, 

 I fought and fell in blood-staind snow.

 

 The years since then have drifted by, 

I rust away beneath the sky,

In a country free from Hitler's reign,

My sacrifice was not in vain."
