TRAMP IN ARMOR

Battlefront blitzkrieg in this super-active novel about a tank named ""Bert"" and a crew that is trapped behind enemy lines in France during World War II. The Germans, led by General Heinrich Storch, are pushing their panzer divisions to the sea unaware that there is a gadfly on their flank. Under the command of Sergeant Barnes, the crew survives everything from a burial underground in a tunnel to a fire to a wild trip down a river to a bloody bog and finally gets close enough to blow up an ammunition dump and a panzer unit along with it. . . stopping the Germans frontal assault. For those who like their knights in this kind of armor and Sergeant Barnes is a British ringer for John Wayne. World War II--much!
