Tank Museum
Published on 27 May 2016Although similar in appearance to earlier models the Mark V was a much better tank, more powerful and easier to drive.
It was equipped with a new engine and steering system which meant that one man could handle all the controls, compared with four in the Mark IV.
Commanded by a young officer named Whittenbury the Museum’s Mark V tank, seen in this video, took part in the Battle of Amiens and its young commander was awarded the Military Cross.
