Really love these pictures taken at weird angles distorting everything and leaving us to let our imaginations run amuck . In the 1st picture , the guy in the helmet seems to be standing beside the drivers hatch , but the second guy seems to be looking into a hatch located behind the drivers hatch ? And what is sticking out of the drivers vision port ? . In the second picture , it looks like someone wrapped the turret hole with a ring of track and covered it with a tarp( the vertical lines on the tarp are where its tight against the track links ) , maybe using it as a sniper post , notice rifle with scope by guy in helmets feet . And does the bow machine gun stick out too far , it looks like a mg 34 in the 1st photo but looks like a piece of pipe in the 2nd . Or maybe I just need more coffee this morning

Agree it looks like a camo tarp or tent wrapped around a length of track. A couple of things to consider:
1) An explosion big enough to blow the turret clean off would surely have blown the hatches as well, which doesn't seem to be the case so it appears somebody has gone round and systematically closed all the hatches back up.
2) If that is a run of tracks under that tarp, would anyone have been able to wrangle them up there without the use of a crane or derrick of some sort?

Possibly the retreating Germans dressed up an already knocked out tank to look like it was still functional? A decoy to delay or distract the enemy?

Additional armor on the front also looks like perhaps it had been repurposed as an Observation Post after being disabled. Sniper nest is possible, but seems like the whole thing would draw more attention than I would desire if I was a sniper.

This is the kind of stuff I love to speculate about.

I can't see a rifle with a scope anywhere even after enlarging it, It's entirely possible that with the track roll and the zelt or tarp roll draped over it (it may not be a camo zeltbahn but may be shadows from how a tarp is draped) it's entirely possible it's been used as an OP. If it was used by a sniper it would be obvious where the shot had come from but if it was an OP where the whole idea is not to be seen it would be quite useful. Lets not forget that OP's aren't neccessarily all about viewing an enemy position but can also be to monitor enemy activity, traffic in a given area etc. Something the LRDG excelled at as that was their major role, not haring round blowing stuff up as that was left to the SAS. Their role was deep recconaissance. We're probably all wrong and it's nothing but it's sparked an interesting discussion.
