DESCRIPTION

Chronicles the development of the Churchill Crocodile flamethrower tank. This book examines the effect of these tanks in battle from use in France to the terrifying attack on the Senio River in Italy, and also investigates the post-war use of the tanks to burn down the site of Belsen concentration camp, and their mobilisation for the Korean War.
A fire-breathing monster on the battlefield, the Churchill Crocodile was one of the most awe-inspiring weapons of World War II. Tank expert David Fletcher chronicles the development of the flamethrower tank, examining the dramatic effect of these tanks in battle from use in France to the terrifying attack on the Senio River in Italy, as well as investigating the post-war use of Crocodiles to burn down and sterilise the site of Belsen concentration camp, and their mobilisation for the Korean War. Researched using the papers of Reginald Fraser - the genius behind the flamethrowers - and dramatically illustrated with detailed artwork and previously unpublished photographs, this book brings to life the true terror of these tanks.
