The 'Gutted' British Tank With No Turret That Changed How Every Army Moved Infantry Into Battle

The Kangaroo APC, built from gutted tank hulls in just seven days, became the world's first true armoured personnel carrier. The full story of how a desperate Canadian general changed how every army on earth moves infantry into battle. From the Black Watch massacre at Verrieres Ridge to Guy Simonds stripping 76 M7 Priests behind the Caen sector. Ram Kangaroo, Churchill Kangaroo, Defrocked Priests. 51 to 76mm cast armour, Continental radial engine, open top hull carrying ten infantrymen. Every variant covered. Combat record across Northwest Europe. Operation Totalize. Le Havre. Boulogne. The Reichswald. The Rhine crossing. Hamburg. How the 1st Canadian Armoured Carrier Regiment carried troops from 58 infantry battalions. Why mounted infantry lost one seventh the casualties of those on foot. 500 Ram Kangaroos built. 15 battle honours earned. One regiment formed and disbanded overseas without ever setting foot on home soil. Israel still builds heavy APCs on this exact principle today.
