Tanks Are Moving Up
The tanks were on their way – but not making the progress expected. Cheering Dutch civilians gather around a Sherman OP tank of 'C' Troop, 55th Field Regiment RA, Guards Armored Division, as Eindhoven is liberated, September 19, 1944. Sitting on the front of the tank is Sgt Herbert Frederick Jones.
