Good afternoon! Excuse me my poor English - I am from Kazakhstan. I search for any photos and drawings of Christie M1921 Medium Tank.? Especially drawings or photos of the cart of a suspension bracket (two small rollers at middle of tank). Thanks!
I live in Kingston-on-Thames (Sopwith country) and remember seeing a photograph (or more than one) in a book showing rhomboid shaped tanks on display in Kingston.
