- This is jagdtiger 331 and this metal beast has a story to tell-Jagdtiger 331 was abandoned by it's crew along with Jagdtiger 323 in Neustadt, Germany in March of 1945 after both vehicles suffered damage to their final drives. The recoil cylinder was drained and a final round was fired to jam the 128 mm gun in full recoil and renderer it inoperable. It will be very good to see the 331 restored cosmetically and protected from the elements after 70+ years of sitting outside.
Museum location-6078 Bradley Dr, Fort Moore, GA 31905

Sorry that the voice over wasn’t that great, I was a little sick and had to rush the video
Ya use a computer voice next time or maybe in the future.
Just stick with 'Fort Benning'. Hundreds of thousands of us know it by that name.
I've actually seen this vehicle, and climbed on it, when it was at Aberdeen proving grounds in Maryland. I found a photo of it taken in 1945 when it was surrendered. The unique shell damage was unmistakable. It should be restored.
Thanks for sharing this video.
That's a beast of an armoured vehicle..Ive climbed all over it while it was on display at Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Aberdeen, Maryland..My father worked on base and I was always at the museum there..Inside and out,lol...
Cool. Nice picks and details.
Always Fort (Rock) Benning!
Excellent video Jack. Nicely done.
Thanks
Sad thing is that the elephant was given to the Bovington Tank Museum. good luck getting that back!
331 took 4 frontal hits 323 took on at least 6 front hits , 331 may have been abandon due to running out of ammo after pummeling the US army 1 final round to jam the gun back in recoil position
Just to provide accurate account. 331 was abandoned after a mobility kill to the port side final drive. At that time the TC gave the order to "spike" the gun and to abandon it and escape. The round to the mantlet did not jam it back.
This was done by draining the hydraulic recoil system and firing a round thus locking the gun back in full recoil and locking the breech open.
If you are able to join us at the next open house event I'll be happy to show you the hit that stopped it as, I am the volunteer usually at this vehicle and can be briefly seen at the beginning of this video.
I just hope they don't cut this one up for training purposes like the other tanks at fort benning. Training purposes or not these tanks need to be on display for the public. Id gladly pay to see them.
They won’t, there just using m48s and maybe some m47s
On those tanks that have had sections removed, that happened a loooong time ago, perhaps during WW2 or shortly thereafter. I don't think there's much risk of that happening again.
@@SomeRandomHuman717they got Hip to just how non existent these Katz are😮❤❤❤
For future reference, it's gun MANTLET not mantle.
She is Stunning❤even inHer condition; too bad they will never give it s real restoration. If I had Cash 😂....
Yes she is, I have another video that should go up this afternoon about the tanks in the back so if you want to watch it
Whats the song used?
Songs from a guy called infraction
Hello, is it going to be restored back to running order ?
I do not know but most likely not as it’s a very heavy tank with a bad engine and transmission
🛵 Yes. Change the names of our everything. That'll put an end to all social problems.
Like the new booker t Washington light tank.should of just named it the President Camacho from idiocracy
Its actually a modernized version of the m8, my bad
@@jackshobbystation1867 I know.but the name.lol.when I told military contractor step dad who was in the army from 1963 to 2007 it was called booker he said booker t Washington.you know why they named it the (booker)and it ain't because of some tank guy during g Iraq just like there erasing all white names from bases.just like Google Gemini ai is programmed to be able to show images white people and instead shows pictures of George Washington and revolutionary soldiers as black.im sure you've heard of it,it's all over youtube.they even took down teddy Roosevelt's statue down at the Smithsonian because it MIGHT make poc,s uncomfortable.so as a white male in a country who's government hates you and is actively facilitating an invasion that our military who's only job is to keep us from being invaded would be a sucker to join our military and doesn't make one very excited about new tanks or anything army related when in all reality are soon gonna be turned on you
Why was Benning dropped?
Something to do with it being named after a confederate general I think.
WOKE liberals
Does anyone know if the 317th Engr Bn is there - it got moved from Camp Eschborn GE to a base in GA.. thanks 🙏
They got moved to Fort Polk, Louisiana in 2015

Hope Trump changes all the names of the forts back .
Gonna be hard to do from jail. 😆😆
Not really, no where in the constitution does it state a president would have no presidential powers.
@@chrisnichols4962 Last time I checked, he has to actually be guilty of something. Not guilty of made up things.
@@greekmonkey9790exactly
As an outsider its weird to see people want bases named after enemy generals. And the new name is after a WW2, korea and vietnam veteran. Why not change it?
TDY many times in my Army career to FT. BENNING and FT. HOOD. I will never accept all these new woke renames.
Needs a better speaker narrating Horrible voice.
Okkkkaaayyyy???
U good or something?
That wasn't very nice
Get someone else to narrate….
