    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Mal's Best of the Best, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group.

    The hand signals given by the Tank Commander and repeated by the Sponson Gunner are very important in controlling the movement of the tank units of the era. Even if all tanks in the unit had voice radio (I'm not sure if they did at this point), the reliability of the sets - when mounted in a shaking, bumping vehicle - was very low.

    Above photo is an M-3A1 'Stuart' Light Tank (I earlier identified this as just an M-3 but have since learned that the original M3 had sponson machine guns mounted on both sides of the driver(s) which were removed on the M3A1). Photo below shows an M3 "Stuart" Light Tank from the 13th Cavalry, 7th Cavalry Group (Mechanized) at Fort Knox with sponson machine guns mounted.
