"Alright, Kris. You handle the driving, I'll be the turret."
or alternatively:
"The 75mm is firing. The 37mm is firing, but it is traversed around the wrong way. The Browning is jammed. I am saying "Kris, advance!" on the radio, and Kris, who can’t hear me, is reversing. And as I look over the top of the turret and see the Roaring fifty yards away... Ralsei hands me a cake slice."

M3 Lee is my anime grill <3
M3 Lee (Real Life/Military Vehicles) is an Anime Girl!
I love the asymmetrical early WWII tanks. Like “we know we need bigger guns but we don’t know how to fit them in a vehicle.”

“Buried among the admirably detailed archives of The Tank Museum in Bovington, Dorset, is this account of a ferocious pitched battle, from the point of view of a tank commander – in this case, a British Lieutenant named Ken Giles.
‘The 75mm main gun is firing,’ Lt Giles recalls, breathlessly. ‘The 37mm secondary gun is firing, but it’s traversed round the wrong way. The Browning [machine gun] is jammed. I am saying, “Driver advance” on the A set, but the driver – who can’t hear me – is reversing. And as I look over the top of the turret, and see 12 enemy tanks, just 50 yards away, someone hands me a cheese sandwich.’
But while this story might seem funny to a civilian, it sums up what, for many tank commanders today, is the very recognisable chaos of tank warfare.”
