RE: newbie [TANKS]

[JOHN PITTELLI <jplily-at-yahoo.com>]

In the first encounter between the Dread Hetzer and
the lowly MarkIV, Prof. Sommer sheathed the mighty
Hetzer with balsa armor. Upon being hit by the lowly
MarkIV,1st hit scored in a major engagement, the bals
armor flew quite nicely off the main body. It became a
nice souvenire for me. There might be some footage on
the Dvd of the first battle.
