On 27 April 2018 Tank-Masters.de was invited to the change of command ceremony of 1st Armor Division in Oldenburg during which our long-time friend Major General Markus Laubenthal handed over the command of the division to Brigadier General Jürgen-Joachim von Sandrart. The hand over of the guidon was conducted by the Commander Field Army and Vice Chief German Army, Lieutenant General Carsten Jacobson, who has been supporting our various projects since many years.

On 18 April 2018 Tank-Masters.de was invited to the Welcome Event of Panzerbrigade 12 „Oberpfalz“ at their new garrison in Cham. As part of the new Army Structure HEER2011 Panzerbrigade 12 „Oberpfalz“ was relocated this month from Amberg to Cham.

At the end of March 2018, Tank-Masters.de had the unique opportunity to photograph the Leopard 2A5 Main Battle Tank with an urban operations camouflage during a test exercise at the new urban training site Schnöggersburg located within the German Army Combat Training Center. You can find more photos in my upcoming Leopard 2A5 book published by Tankograd Publishing.
