Title:
WWI, British Mark V Tank, 1918
Caption:
The British Mark V tank was an upgraded version of the Mark IV tank, deployed in 1918 and used in action in the closing months of WWI. The Mark V was first used in the Battle of Hamel on July 4, 1918, when 60 tanks contributed to a successful assault by Australian units on the German lines. It went on to take part in eight major offensives before the end of the War. Approximately 70 were sent to support the White Russian forces in the Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War and in the British North Russia Campaign. Most were subsequently captured by the Red Army
