Looks like a Hummel SPG/Artillery, or a Nashorn Tank Destroyer.

I think it's supposed to be a Nashorn.

When you have nothing to do but camp, do silly things with the shell.

They must be camping for quite some time.

Not seen in the picture, but right behind them, is the heaviest tank in the battalion...

And I assume the one looking at them is taking a picture as a memorabilia-

Yep its a Nashorn, Hummels had bigger cannons and didn't had the side machinegun

Considering how the grass has grown on the tracks, they have been here for a long time without moving that thing. No wonder they start doing silly things.

That's for added camouflage. Not an uncommon tactic.
