This is the story of a tank regiment: the 2nd Fife and Forfar
Yeomanry in the Second World War. Raw and visceral personal
recollections from the men themselves recall some of the most
dramatic and horrific scenes imaginable - the sheer nerve-wracking
tension of serving in highly inflammable Sherman tanks, the sudden
impact of German shells, the desperate scramble to bail out, and
the awful fate of those who couldn't. Even if they made it out of
the tank, they were still vulnerable to being brutally cut down by
German infantry. Yet amidst these horrors, the humanity of these
men shines through. And as we follow in their tracks, through
letters, diaries and eye-witness accounts, they will change how we
think about tank warfare forever.
