502 Heavy Tank Batt insignia I think, these Panzer III N's were used in a support role.

From "Panzer Ace" by Richard Freiherr Von Rosen I read that the companies consisted of 1 Tiger for the company commander, 2 Platoons each with 4 Tigers and a light company with 8 Pz. IIIs. I think I recall reading somewhere (but, needless to say couldn't find the reference to quote here) that the Pz IIIs went ahead to establish where the opposition was before the Tigers pushed through to use their superior armour and firepower to deal with it.
