How to deal with the tanks in Tunasia
I am on the second and third missions of Tunasia. You get 37mm ATG's that cant do anything to the panzers. How am I supposed to win this mission?

They can destroy Panzers III. Also regular infantry can damage it so badly that the crew will bail out. Put them in ambush or get them very close to the tank and keep ordering them to attack it. They will keep throwing the granades and there is a good chance the tank will be disabled. Ad hoc antitank team also work, but as always with CC title infantry vs armor is a tricky business. Luck is also a factor.
CC is not a fair game. It's a historical game. Tunisia is savage on your dudes. Try and ambush that PIV and take it out of action. AT will take care of the PIII if you're lucky. Lucky artillery will take care of the armored cars. Hunker down and pray. Your troops are raw recruits and the enemy has been on campaign for 4 years. It's meant to be brutal. Think about what grandpa had to go through.

Like Private Ryan...explosives and Socks! ;)
Put AT guns on ambush then wait for the panzer to show its ass. Also, tank hunting team will absolutely wreck a panzer up close, just gotta bait it.

Alternatively just track it with Engineers/Pioneers and let it sit there all useless

arty can disable the tracks, keep your AT guns in ambush at start of the game and they will be camouflaged until you move them. put your AT in ambush around suspected routes tanks would take
