Battle of the Bulge

Visited the Kruse Victory Museum in Auburn, IN.  The museum is impressive, holding over 150 vehicles from the major participants of World War 2.  Below is a diorama, artist unknown, that was of particular interest to me.  It is 1/35 scale, and, if I had to guess, about 20 feet by 10 feet in size, if not bigger.

This photo does a nice job of showing the size of this diorama.
