Tanks break out of cover and cross a field

The hull and tracks of a tank break out of a barn hung with straw, bales tumbling from its sides; another tank noses through dense bushes; across open fields a column of tanks, commanders standing in their turrets, rolls towards a line of trees in a cloud of dust. German newsreel footage; according to the source German armoured columns crossing the Netherlands, May 1940.
