Naw, the antennae you see are the usual 19-set A and B antennae. If this were an OP tank, you'd see double that.

As John mentioned, the red-white-red was a standard insignia which was carried through to the Mediterranean theatre, but NOT into NW Europe.

Hmmm... throwing a track in town... exciting! Given we can't see the track in the pic, he must have been going at quite a clip... even more exciting!

Given the regulation stowage (note the 1919A4 on the side of the turret) and lack of shipping stencils, it's obviously in service, not just in transit, and I suspect sometime in '43. Great pic, Keefy!

We need a 'then & now' pic! Who amongst you can identify the town?

PS: Keefy, can you read that W/D number more clearly on your original scan?
