Churchill tanks of 6th Guards Tank Brigade and infantry of the 2nd Gordon Highlanders in Kleve, 11 February 1945.
Note: The current photo is taken in the Minoriten-strasse, the same street as in 1945 but this street so much changed that’s it’s not recognisable anymore. So it’s not confirmed this is the actual spot. Still nice in my opinion though.
