A knocked-out Cromwell tank of 2nd Welsh Guards, 10 September 1944. After the capture of Brussels and Antwerp, British Second Army’s headlong advance was halted as German resistance stiffened. In early September XXX Corps, with Guards Armoured Division in the lead, battled to cross the Albert and the Meuse-Escaut canals and reach the Belgian-Dutch border. This Cromwell was knocked out during fierce fighting to take the village of Hechtel. Unusually for an official photograph, it records one of the crew lying dead on the turret.}}
