Tanks are supposed to operate in groups with close support from infantry. The iof infantry are cowards who don't have the stomach for genocide when they have to do it in person on the ground. Thus the tank's are unsupported, leaving them vulnerable to incredible heroics like this.

are cowards who don't have the stomach for genocide

turns out this is basically anyone - the Nazis found that their initial enactment of the final solution (firing squads mostly) was hindered by the psychological impact it had on the soldiers doing it - hence why they tried to find more 'indirect' methods of murder, resulting in the gas chambers

This is one of my favourite little factoids about the subject, that the big hard nazis with their fascism STILL couldn't fucking stomach doing warcrimes.
