Bonsoir,

This Schneider M1 (number 61135) was destroy on April 1917, 16th (West of Condé-sur-Suippes) along the "Tranchée du Capitole".

 It was the first tank of the second Battery from AS 9 Group. The tank commander was the Lieutenant d'Harcourt (killed at this place).

This tank stayed in German lines since 1918 and German soldiers used to do photographies.

There is, at least, 10 photos of this destroyed tank . . . .
