PaK 40 anti-tank gun

Finnish soldiers moving 75mm PaK 40 anti-tank gun. In the first days of Soviet Vyborg–Petrozavodsk offensive at Karelian Isthmus in June 1944, lots of these guns had to be moved this way because artillery tractors and horses were being used in fortification works. Many of the guns were abandoned on the field when retreating in the very hectic conditions.
