abn deuce Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) A photo of a Valentine tank during maneuvers in an English town caption has got the wrong date , the group of photo's I got this from were dated 1941 . and clearly this is not a 1901 tank since the first "Tanks" were not built until 1915 . Townspeople gathering around a tank during wargames. Location: United Kingdom Date taken: 1901 Edited March 10, 2009 by abn deuce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Pearson Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 In 1941, the tank is more likely to be a Mk I or II rather than a IV but to be fair, all three look identical from the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
