This Video covers Marine use of tanks, but most tanks were in Army units. Several Cav units with tanks 1-1-4CAV, 4-2-1CAV and an armor unit. In all the time I was there they never learned. They continued to send us in first.

One of the Tanks in the video was a 1st Cav Tank. Had a Red lightning bolt on the gun tube.

To bad you didn't also address the army's premiere armored unit in Vietnam, the Blackhorse Regiment, the 11th Armored Cavalry
