Could someone enlighten me? Male vs female?
Edit: Wait. No cannon = female?
I believe that the "male" tanks were fitted with 6 pounder quick firing guns (one in each sponson) and the "female" tanks instead had two machine guns in each sponson.
Thanks

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
I am planning to go over next year again for the 100th Anny of Pashendeale (?) I am planning how many days I will need in each area, and hope to see this Tank at that time.
