It was deserted and quiet … There were none of the usual signs of devastation … Eeriness shattered into grim reality by that crack-brrrmmmph-bang than can come only from an eighty-eight. A Honey tank ahead was transfigured into a mass of roaring red and crimson flame … Wireless silence was broken by the Colonel [who had gone up to Point 213 in a scout car, along with Carr] with urgent orders to deploy for battle … I saw the second Honey immediately ahead of us share the same fate as its leader. One moment a tank, the next something without shape or form, belching flame and smoke from its turret, the ammunition inside exploding and red and yellow tracers weaving fantastic patterns around it, intermingled with vivid red and green glows of Verey cartridges.¹³
