This is obviously a US Army WW2 training film, but it has great stuff on some of the US weapons to defend against tanks or fight pillboxes, etc. Loved the live fire against the Pz IV G.

For Peter Reuss, you might appreciate the sequence of the 57mm AT gun late in the film as you have a family connection. My dad served the "little" 105mm howitzers shown (issued to regimental cannon companies and some airborne units).

By the way - for guys who like to show battle damage on models, note the blast effects of the HEAT rounds (AT rifle grenade and bazooka) and the relatively small hole.
