If you have visited our site before you might notice it looks quite different. We have a complete new rebuild of the site. A lot of information has been added from the After Action Reports (and more will be added in the coming months). Enjoy the new layout and all the information we have to share.

This is the home of the WWII 808 Tank Destroyers. The tank destroyers were created during WWI to destroy the Germans' new tanks. The 808th TD Battalion was under Gen. Patton's command and were considered "his own" Tank Destroyers. Our site hopes to familiarize visitors not only with the 808th TD Battalion but also with the European Theater of operations and the era of tank destroyers. We also have a large area devoted to the 808 tank destroyer vets since the end of WWII.
