This is another picture of the model that was used to apply for a patent for an anphibious army tank .It is about 30 inches long. It had two screws and a chain in the center . The neibour kids took a screw off of it and cut out some of the windows .A fellow by the name of Sam Cody invented it .He was a Canadian working in a munition plant in Detroit in 1917 .The American army was not interested in it because they wouldn't use a foreign patent in their army . The guns were to be put on after they got it working . The model had a wind up motor to drive the screws . George
