Armor Number 31
Amtracs in Action gives you a very good, short overview of this important amphibious assault vehicle. Designed just before WW2, the Marines recognized its combat potential both to supply units inland and more importantly, help them seize the beaches. Over 10,000 of versions 1 through 5 were built, serving mostly in the Pacific Campaign, some in Europe and as late as the Korean War. Other, larger versions are still in use today.
