Drag Ropes: How are they used??

[tankbarrell]

Ah but that doesn't say the 6 pdr ropes were the same as the light drag ropes in length, just rope size. The 6pdr handbook says the ropes are the 30' rope converted with an eye sliced on one end with chains for the rim hooks, so they cannot be the old 15' 6" rope, though they may be that length.
