gas 44 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Can some one better than me explain why the barrel on the Sherman looks short, not up speed on armour. Some really good pictures there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil P Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Brilliant show, very well organised and thoroughly enjoyed by the Second City Militia who made the trip. Congratulations to all those involved. There were several members of the MVT CoM who saw the 'swimming' incident. I was one of them. I am sure what happened will be investigated and discussed in a calm manner and lessons learned. I will make one personal comment. If you are going to have somebody acting as look out it is a good idea if they actually did that job and give instructions rather than filming it. The good thing is nobody was hurt. As to comments made on this forum care has to be taken not to stifle free speech whilst controlling ill thought out remarks. I am sure that Jack is more than capable of controlling the subject matter. Great to see the guys from the NLBA and relive some of the Pas de Calaise experiences.

skyhawk42 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 HI guys, Just to keep you up to date. The safety report for the Wicksteed at War show is now complete. It will go for review with the organising team on Wednesday and then be submitted to the MVT safety officer. This will also be accompanied by an updated MVT safety guide which we have done based on what we learnt from the show. The guide to swimming amphibious vehicles is still being produced and will follow on behind. All the comments in this string have been considered and implemented where applicable.
