Summary edit

Description A U.S. Army M6 heavy tank in December 1941.
Original caption: "Delivery of the first heavy tanks. This is the new fifty-seven-ton tank, known as the M-1 in the initial demonstration. Notice that the gun turrets are on the top, making it possible for the tank to take advantage of irregular land, sheltering the lower part and shooting from revolving turrets on top. In the turret are three-inch guns and a thirty-seven-millimeter antiaircraft gun."
