First real taste of fighting for Americans in WWII...eye-opening and humbling, but we caught on!

Great story on the battle, our tanks definitely were no match for the 88 mm guns, but we learned and moved on.

Our tanks were definitely one of the costliest set backs. We had the Pershing ready to go in early 1943. I'm grateful that our boys have a killer tank now.
