This is from the Mk V* section on chars fran?ais. It looks to me like Americans, with lots of FTs in the background, standing in front of a Mk something - IV? How could that have come about?
Hi, I am intending to make a model of a British FT-17 tank from 1918. Does anyone have any idea as to what colour scheme would have been used. I've read that only weaponless vehicles were used for command/comms work, but if anyone can verify this as well I would be obliged. ? ANS

I know that they both wore the m1860 shako and, to me surprisingly, the m1813 cap but i have seen many photographs and drawings of them wearing the m1860 shakos both with AND without their covers during wartime.
