Let’s face it: the General Grant tank was never one of the most attractive designs in the American arsenal. No looker on its best day, to be sure, but at least it couldn’t get any worse... until someone got the bright idea to convert one into a recovery vehicle...
This is a Flames of War 1/100 scale resin and metal wargaming miniature:
You might have noticed the unusual name of the vehicle...
The Battlefront Miniatures 1/100 scale decal sheet US941(C) I used had included a bunch of mostly typical tank names like “Blood ‘N Guts”, “Battling Bitch”, “Cobra King”, “Destruction”, “Hurricane”, but ...“Laxitive” ? Who would name their vehicle something like THAT? Maybe because, like its namesake, this sturdy wrecker was used to “get things moving”...?
I couldn’t resist!
