Hi there
I'm unfamiliar with the photo you mention, but I have seen film footage
of Canadian Field gunners using a captured Italian Semovente SP. They
even went so far as to add a complete set of markings! Also in Italy,
we used a battery of Nebelwurfers on their former owners, till the ammo
ran out. So I would suggest the Nashorn was never 'taken on strength'
but used to thicken up an artillery concentration.
