"Panzerschreck", with a c, but consider also accepting Panzerfaust, probably the more famous German anti-tank weapon. Also it's a "Stielhandgranate" not a "Stalinhandgrenate". Stiel means "stick" or "stalk". Nowt to do with Stalin, I'm afraid.

For goodness' sake, 'Garand M1' not acceptable but 'M1 Garand' is?
