I think that there is a site which has video and pictures about the tank duel in and around the square at the Cologne cathedral.

Yep, the footage of the Cologne duel between the German Panther and American tanks is out there in a number of places. For those interested in the Pershing (one of which destroys the Panther), Belton Cooper's book "Death Traps" contains some interesting info on the introduction of the Pershing to combat in NWE.

As part of the overall drive to Cologne and Bonn, Uncle B's 47th Infantry is making their way to the Bad Godesburg area, but tomorrow will bring one of their more interesting changes in objectives.
