Tankers! Armor Crewman. Please share how your branch's heroism or ingenuity influenced the battlefields.

After the D-Day invasion, tankers were facing a natural obstacle that shortened their already short lifespans....the French hedgerows. These very old rows of trees and shrubs and earthen walls made breaching impossible. Losses were astronomical. Growing fear was that if enough time passed, the Germans would organize and push the allies right out of France. A soldier named Curtis Culin, assigned to a NJ National Guard armor unit, had an idea and used enemy steel obstacles off the beaches to fashion a makeshift breeching device to plow straight through. This simple idea saved countless lives and enabled the breakout of friendly forces. What are some of your favorite tanker stories of valor or ingenuity from across the ages?
