Le Char Bold
Credit
: François DUPONT
Description
This tank was recovered from the sea in 1970. The Duplex Drive Sherman (DD) is the most famous in a range of special tanks employed by the Allied forces. Its name is due to the dual propulsion system : by track on land and by propeller at the sea, and equipped with flotation system. "Bold" is a memorial to the 1 st Hussars, which also bears the insignias of the Canadian regiments which took part in the D-Day landings and the Battle Normandy.
