Valentine-2Considering that today is Valentine’s Day, we thought the most appropriate subject for the PotD would be a Valentine tank.  This picture shows a rather unusual Valentine, it’s a vehicle that was in service on the island of Cyprus in the 1960’s.  It was missing it’s turret which had been replaced by a simple metal box-like superstructure and armed with a BREN gun.  More info here.

Photo of the Day

Welcome to our new “Photo of the Day” feature.  Since we often come across photos that are worth sharing but don’t necessarily justify being their own news post, we have created the “Photo of the Day” category.  Our first entry comes from the book “US Military Railway Service in WW2 by Nevi and Hall.”
