Early?
Hi John, The history suggests that the practice started in the Hochwald, which of course was well before the end of the war. They were used to move the Linc and Well to an objective and then supported the assault by bringing supplies and evacuating wounded.
The 6 AT, as 2nd Corps troops may have been used as needed? Or, was there an evolution in thinking and the ram became more important as an asset than the anti-tank gun? Obviously the tank threat was diminishing in March and April, but there were still lots of employment for the 17 pdrs.
