The Photo Journal of the Second World War No.6

Ampersand Publishing.
The publishers of MMIR magazine.
96 pages soft cover.

The sixth in the series continues the same formula of good close-up photos plus wartime photos. Many of the photos are one to a page which allows the details to be clearly seen with the large photos. Each page has brief descriptions at the bottom of each picture.

Contents of issue 6:
Tigers at the front:
16 pages with 16 large photos of the Tiger in action from early to late model Tigers, again these photos have good diorama potential.

Japanese Ka-Mi Amphibious Tank:
7 pages of wartime photos of this interesting vehicle.

Sd.Kfz. 11 Zugkraftwagen 3-ton halftrack:
14 pages again with good wartime photos of the 3-ton in-action. No real close-ups but good general shots.

M20 "Diamond-T" Tank Transporter:
23 pages of wartime photos of the Diamond-T with many of the different loads it carried, inluding a shot of a captured Panther being "taken away for questioning". There is also a few good shots of the M9 Trailer.
The next 10 pages have excellent close-up photos of the vehicle and trailer, including a sequence of an M5A1 being loaded on the trailer.

4-ton "Diamond-T" 9B9A Wrecker:
8 pages of wartime photos showing the wrecker in action, followed by 11 pages of close-up photos of the cab, winch and boom details. The final 5 pages have shots of the Diamond T cargo truck.

In all another great issue of this series, which are becoming a must have reference series.
