A friend sent me this photo asking about the kill mark circled in red. This appears to be a WWII German self-propelled gun (88mm?) of some type with kill marks on the splinter shield. The mark in question looks like a saucer shaped craft. I have no idea what it is supposed to represent.

That looks like an UFO lol. I thought alot about it, but I can't remember anything else out of german history. We learned alot about the last wars in our school here in Germany, but I never seen something like this.

Yeah, I'm a military history/WWII guy and I'm totally at a loss. My best guess is the gun was on the Russian front considering the number of tank and bunker kills, but no clue what to make of the saucer shaped object.
 
I was hoping it was real.The idea about the machine gun nest was good,sort of ruined the whole thing for the ones who faked it.
