June 1967. The heat over the Golan Heights shimmers, the ground
is bone dry. In the distance, silhouettes emerge that seem to
belong to another decade. A familiar, angular profile here, a
tall, bulbous hull there.

It feels like an echo from 1944, yet we are in the midst of the
Six-Day War. On one side: Syrian Panzer IVs, the last veterans of
the Wehrmacht. On the other: Israeli Super Shermans, armed to the
teeth with French technology.

In today's episode, we examine one of the most curious battles in
tank history. How did German equipment end up in the Levant? And
why were machines that should have been in a museum still
fighting for supremacy in one of the most fiercely contested
regions of the world?
