Crack That Tank 1943 Anti tank warfare

Made in 1943 as part of the Fighting Men series, CRACK THAT TANK explains the tactics an infantryman can use to disable or destroy an enemy tank. Vulnerabilities of the tank include its track, which can be destroyed with a grenade, mine or a shell. A disabled tank is a sitting duck. A closed or buttonedup tank is vulnerable because its crew cannot see the battlefield well, just through slits and periscopes. Taking out vision slits and periscopes can make a tank blind. Infantry that is well hidden is difficult for a tank crew to see or attack. Interestingly, most of the direct destruction of enemy tanks seen in the film, is accomplished by artillery, air strikes, and American tanks.
