Alan the right facing tank worn on the left side would appear to be withdrawing from contact and couldn't be acceptable. I wonder if this was taken under consideration before the hats were changed so the left facing tank badge was available at the same time as the new beret?
John, thanks for the reply. I have a non badge question about withdrawing from contact. In open terrain like the western desert would this be accomplished by stepping on the gas and making a 180 which would expose the back of the tank which in most cases had less armour?
