However, observation of the new world war quickly pointed to the need for such a vehicle. Armored vehicles, immobilized for any reason, were easily destroyed by opposing troops, denying the possibility for recovery and repair or even the salvaging of parts after the battle. This book chronicles the development and use of the US and British military’s Sherman tank–based armored recovery vehicles. The armor books by David Doyle , author of over 175 books, are noted for their thorough coverage of historic vehicles and his celebrated ability to locate scarce vintage imagery.
