Tank number 212 in action

A light tank with the number 212 on its turret and a cross on its hull fires from a meadow while soldiers lie in the grass around it; beyond the upright of a gun mount another tank crosses the field near a line of bushes as a gun barrel recoils; a bright, blurred tank shows as if through a gunsight. German newsreel footage of the campaign in the West, May 1940.
