Summary[edit]

Description
English: Warsaw Uprising: Repaired "Chwat" at the courtyard of the Main Post Office. On top from the left: "Asko" and a welder send to help from insurgent power plant. "Chwat" was a German Jagdpanzer 38(t) "Hetzer" tank destroyer captured by the Home Army soldiers during fights around Main Post Office. Initially heavily damaged and build into a barricade, but later fixed and kept operational until lost under ruins of the postal building.
Polski: Powstanie Warszawskie: Zreperowany "Chwat" na dziedzińcu Poczty. Przy włazie od lewej ppor "Asko" i spawacz przysłany do pomocy przez powstańczą Elektrownię. "Chwat", niemieckie działo pancerne typu Jagdpanzer 38(t) "Hetzer", które zostało zdobyte podczas walk o Pocztę Główną. Początkowo zniszczone i wbudowane w barykadę lecz później zreperowane i używane dopóki nie zostało utracone pod gruzami zniszczonego budynku poczty. Orzeł i napis "Chwat" podobno sa autorstwa Mariana Sigmunda.
