What are the special qualities that mark out a soldier in the Royal Armoured Corps? Where does that special mixture of leadership-by-example, team spirit, flair, and selfless courage come from?
This film examines the history of the Royal Armoured Corps, from its roots in the brave, dashing cavalry of the age of the horse, and the gritty courage of the crews of the very first tanks, in the mud and blood of the Great War, through the Second World War and Korea to the modern RAC. Along the way we discover what it is that makes the armoured soldier special.
