Myths of American Armor. TankFest Northwest 2015

I was invited to go up to TankFest Northwest by the Flying Heritage Collection. I chose to address some of the common misconceptions about American armor in WW2. There were some post-facto pop-ups which were supposed to appear, but Youtube seems to have disabled the functionality. For example, the "Honey" use by the British (which did happen) does seem to have been obtained from the Americans. Bob Crisp's book indicates his driver started it out and he had been guilty of hanging out with the Texan manufacturer's representative too much. "Ronson" did have an advert in the early 1920s saying akin to "Lights every time", though one may question awareness of it two decades later. Thanks to Wargaming Seattle for the cameraman.
