Leírás: The tanks, in a 'swarm', roll over the grassland - Vickers Medium Mark IIs and Mark IIIs of 5th Battalion, accompanied by Infantry carriers. A Medium Mark II Command Tank of 5th Battalion stops near the camera. 1st (Light) Battalion, in their Light Tanks Mark IIB, lead the way out over the plain. Another Mark II of 5th Battalion drives off. The general manoeuvres continue. (In close-up, it can be seen that the tanks have their battalion numbers painted on, eg "I(Lt)Bn R Tanks".)
