British Flame Thrower Tanks, Vehicles & Infantry Equipment - NWE 1944: Combat Report & Overview

#1

The two attached articles discuss the use of the British Army flame thrower tanks, vehicles and infantry equipment.

The first article is a September 1944 report by the US Army 116th Infantry Regiment of the 29th Infantry Division about the aid furnished by the Crocodiles of the 141st Royal Armored Corp during their combined attack on Fort Moatbarey near Breast, France. The report is from the US Army Combat Notes report series for the European Campaign.

The second article is an overview of the British flame thrower tanks and vehicles and infantry flame throwers that was printed in the London Times Weekly Edition on 30 August 1944. This copy of the article was printed in the February 1945 edition of the USA professional military reference magazine ‘Military Review’.

I’ve placed a duplicate of this post in the site’s ‘The United Kingdom & its Empire & Commonwealth 1919 - 1945’ section.
