General BANNED His Illegal Anti-Air Truck - Until He Saved The Entire Platoon

-#M15Halftrack #WW2History #UrbanWarfare #37mmCannon #militaryhistory When the infantry was pinned down by snipers in a fortified city, they expected air support. Instead, they got a "useless" anti-aircraft unit that turned buildings into dust. The Problem: The M15 CGMC was designed to shoot down planes, not fight in narrow city streets. Top-heavy, lightly armored, and open-topped, the "Target Magnet" was hated by crews who felt exposed and vulnerable. Commanders wanted it guarding bridges in the rear, convinced that bringing a thin-skinned truck into the line of fire was a death sentence. The Risk: To save the pinned-down platoon, the crew had to throw out the rulebook. They drove their "glass cannon" directly into the kill zone, using the rapid-fire 37mm cannon to demolish brick walls that ignored standard machine gun fire. This "Street Sweeper" tactic exposed the gunners to sniper fire from every window, relying on pure aggression and the terrifying rhythm of the "Thump-Thump" cannon to silence the enemy before they could shoot back. ✅In this video, we uncover: -The unauthorized "field modifications" that turned an AA gun into the ultimate urban demolition tool. -How the rhythmic "Thump-Thump" of the 37mm cannon became the sound of salvation for pinned-down infantry. -The "Can Opener" tactic that turned a rejected vehicle into the most requested fire support weapon in the ETO.
