| War Office reports held in the national archives, state that after the initial experiences in Normandy 44, Montgomery asked for, and eventually got 1 in 3 Churchills with 6pdrs specifically for anti-tank purposes. APDS from the 6pdr was apparantly very successful, including the the effect of spalling after penetration. Were any Churchill VII's re-equipped with the 6pdr, as none of the proposed IX's were completed? |
