Can't make anything of the lyrics relating to tanks, although there are posters with guns on them - see James' post on this:http://landships.activeboard.com/t33681911/the-tanko/ including the song.

Have listened hard to the Youtube thing, but can only make out a bit. There's certainly something about "in Berlin." Can't find the lyric or sheet music.

Looking at http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/worldwars/wwone/gallery_tank_03.shtml, I thought the featured Reynolds Punch cartoon had been posted in these forums somewhere.  Can't find it if so.  Here it is (again?) anyway:

Tanks Sep 27 1916 Punch.png

Percy T. Reynolds, Punch 27 September 1916 (page 238) ... and from the same issue, F.H. Townsend (page 215)
