ORIGINAL WWI PHOTO - ORIGINAL TO THE TIME - NOT A COPY, SCAN, OR REPRO

QUANTITY: 1 - See the other original WWI & WWII photos that I have listed.

ITEM: RARE Original WWI Photo of PATTON'S TANK SCHOOL, TANK TRAINING CENTER, BOURG, France, 1918. Shows BRITISH MARK IV TANK. Patton trained his men with Renault FT tanks, but the Tank School had a few British Mark IV tanks that were apparently used as "enemy" or target tanks. See the other photos of Patton's tank school that I have listed separately.

Photo came from an officer in the 344th Tank Battalion. The photos are obviously from Patton's Tank School in Bourg, France. Some of the images show the same places of similar photos of Patton's Tank School online. Also, these photos came with photos from the 344th Tank Battalion which trained as the 1st Tank Battalion at Bourg.
