You know how you can always tell a Command and Control Texan from the masses? They wear BIG belt buckles. Davy Crockett told me that one. Tony lee ;D

Ok, I have dumb question as I can be a little ignorant on German armor, but whats the deference between a Befehlsjager and a marder? Befehlsjager had more radios installed in place of the ammo holders on the right side of the fighting compartment so they could serve as a command vehicle while still fielding another gun in the unit. Otherwise they were exactly the same.
