The Churchill tank was probably the most famous British armoured fighting vehicle of the Second World War. With frontal armour that was 6 inches thick, it was also one of the toughest, and its ability to absorb punishment and come back for more was legendary.
Designed for operations in North West Europe, the Churchill’s baptism of fire came with the tragic Dieppe landings in 1942. Later. it served with distinction in Tunisia and Italy, while others fought with the Red Army on the Russian Front. However, it was the campaign in Normandy and the subsequent advance into Germany for which it is best remembered. The Korean conflict saw it in action again, but this was its swansong.
