Default Hi Guys

Hi Guys,

Thanks Hanno and Eric for the welcome. This is a really interesting site. A great amount of detailed information and interesting and unusual images.

Eric, I have never seen that image of the Vickers command tank before. The two pounder at least could have given the KNIL armor some anti-tank capability. I liked those images that you posted on the Vickers tanks and Overvaalwagens taken by the Japanese. The one image of the overturned Vickers even appeared to show a crewman laying dead in the drivers compartment. It was interesting to see these vehicles from the perspective of the Japanese. Were these from Taki's Japanese Army website?

Hanno, I liked your Marmon-Herrington site and the images and information on the utility tractors. Some of the versions resembled Bren gun carriers. That image that you posted today looked like a captured Vickers Model 1936 being used by the Japanese.

I may post some more images this weekend. There is so much information here that is almost overwhelming. Great stuff.

Best Wishes,
George
