German commander uses 'PISTOL SKILL' to take aim and fire off his Luger at the Allied commander, while the tank comes barreling closer. Thanks to training (shooting at birds while on a truck), he is unlikely to miss. However, being a smart commander and recognizing there's machine-gunners on the ground, he promptly ducks back inside after shooting.
The loader tries to comfort the gunner while slamming a entry round in, which is promptly aimed- and fired- at the not-flaming tank.
