“And one hell of a reverse gear.”
LOL!
Many French recon vehicles had both front and rear driver’s positions for rapid withdrawal without actually turning the vehicle. That’s a sign of how much they prioritize retreat as a “tactic”.
Yeah, blame the vehicle. What a bunch of maroons...it couldn’t be that your crew training sucks, and you and your sub unit commanders are incapable of understanding the Roles/missions/responsibilities of reconnaissance vehicles...
It’s a British humor running joke, that only the truly ignorant of military history would make.
OUCH!!! Happy Independence Day!

Just one crew? LOL.
