I thought the tanks were parked in Liverpool and the scousers had nicked a couple of the wheels. Clearly they were surprised by the local bobby otherwise both tanks would be entirely up on bricks.
Yep, the Hamilcar was a fair size, at 68 feet long, and a wingspan of 110 feet. It was designed to carry the Locust and Tetrarch light tanks, as well as vehicles and the 17 pdr AT gun.
Used during the Normandy landings, and at Arnhem, and the Rhine crossing. The one in the pic is almost certainly in Normandy, judging by the full 'invasion' stripes.
