It was of great interest that I read of the tank named 'Carole".My father had the name 'Carole" on his tank.It was named after Carole Lombard,the actress.I had a photo of it,but all photo's were distroyed in a house fire.My youngest sister is named "Carole",after his tank.Could this be the same tank in your photo's?Or were there more than one tank with this name?

Hi Wayne;

The tank "Carole" referred to off and on throughout this thread was one which was named and operated by "C" Squadron, 13th/18th Royal Hussars (Queen Mary's Own) of the British Army.

Hopefully, Gord Crossley (FGH Museum and Archives), a forum member here will see your post and respond.
