Ciao Luca e benvenuto!
Le tue notizie sono esatte. Non so praticamente nulla di carri e semoventi tedeschi e mi limito a dirti che la notizia che citi è confermata anche da fonti statunitensi. Riporto una parte del testo di pag. 22 del volume ''Pershing - A history of the Medium Tank T20 Series'' - R.P. Hunnicutt - 1971 Feist Publications USA, quindi affidabilissimo:
... On March 6th Captain Gray was with the 3rd
Armored in Cologne searching for a T26E3 that was reported knocked out, but was unable to find it due to bitter fighting taking place in the area. The following day Cologne was captured and he finally located the tank at the little suburb town of Niehl, north of Cologne on the banks of the Rhine. This was Pershing number 25 belonging to Company H of the 33rd Armored Regiment and it had been knocked out by a self-propelled 8.8 cm gun (Nashorn) at under 300 yards range. The projectile penetrated the lower front armor, passed between the driver's legs and set the turret on fire. The crew successfully abandoned the
vehicle before the ammunition blew up gutting the turret. Although the tank was repairable, it would have taken several months to make it combat serviceable.
Considering the severe shortage of spare parts, it was evacuated to the rear for cannibalization. Out of the original 20 tanks of the Zebra Mission, this was the only one which did not finish the war on active service. ...
Per quanto riguarda il reparto di appartenenza, ho sentito citare proprio quello che riporti. Passo la parola agli amici appassionati di mezzi tedeschi per mimetiche, particolari e dettagli del Nashorn in questione.
Ciao
Gigi
