20230624 (61)_Two-pounder_Anti-tank_Gun

Two-pounder Anti-tank Gun in action in the Kuwait Arena at The Tank Museum, Bovington Camp, Dorset during Tankfest 2023. One of the themes of this year's Tankfest was "anti-tank" and the Garrison Artillery Volunteers, a large re-enactment organisation concentrating on 20th century artillery, provided several WWII British pieces with demonstrations of the skills and drills involved in deploying and using the weapons in action, beginning with two 2-pounders. The 2-pounder served with distinction with the BEF in the Battle of France, 1940.
