    Lieutenant RAMBO? I assume his nephew was Sgt. Heinrich Stallone.

    And either the luckiest or unluckiest man that ever lived. This guy gets bombed, strafed, had his arm nearly amputated, caught typhus and various other diseases. Hospitalized repeatedly, and god only knows what I’ve missed. He is interesting though. Peace 🎉🎉🎉

    It's just a pity the AI speech doesn't get all the measurements and a few other bits right. Quite a story to tell though! I believe it's Mark Felton's voice, but I could be wrong.

    Having such a massive tank sure comes with tons of issues in case of breaking down issues.😬

      I think I recall reading that overweight was it's biggest problem. The engine was underpowered , transmission and drive to light , and all of it high wear as a result. If they had more time to develop better it would have worked , but building a new engine is a years long process
      I think the Russian kv1 had similar issues, that it's transmission was from a 1920s caterpillar, for 10% the weight and power

    Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent photography picture 📷of the tank & infantry. Awaiting another military operations command order. If this is September 1944/fuel must be in short supply. Romanian oil fields captured by the advancing Russian military forces. Allied bombers targeting major synthetic fuel refineries. Put quite a demand for fuel that was in short supply. Along with the fact synthetic fuel refineries can't provide lubricant products. A commodity that the allies had plenty of. & the remainder of the war was written in the history books 📚.
