Victory in the ground war of World War 2 could be decided through various means but it was the tank that ultimately took center stage. Tanks were an important weapons system in World War II. Even though tanks in the inter-war years were the subject of widespread research, production was limited to relatively small numbers in a few countries. However, during World War II most armies employed tanks, and production levels reached thousands each month. Tank usage, doctrine, and production varied widely among the combatant nations. By war's end, a consensus was emerging regarding tank doctrine and design.The combat system evolved much from its infancy witnessed during World War 1 (1914-1918) and grew to become a focal point of the many offensives had in the Second Grand War - spanning from Europe to the Pacific and all places in between. The conflict delivered into armored warfare history such classics as the German 'Panther' and 'Tiger' types, the Soviet T-34, the British 'Churchill' and the American 'Sherman'. Before the end, the Allies would be crowned the victors thanks largely to numerical superiority, setting the groundwork for a whole new generation of tanks to come in the Cold War years (1947-1991).By the end of World War 2, the tank was established as one of the most potent battle winners in history. Between 1939 and 1945 over 280,000 tanks of all types had been built by the major combatants – 105,000 by the Soviets alone. The tank had undoubtedly become the main weapon of the land-based army. This book covers in comprehensive detail the development, production and battlefield use by the forces of Great Britain, the Commonwealth, the USA, the Soviet Union, France, Germany, Italy and Japan, as well as the other combatant countries. Both allied and Axis powers like the Britain, United States, Soviet Union and Germany produced significant numbers of tanks before and during WWII. The following aspects are included in the book,-List of top 10 powerful tanks and variants-Specification of the tanks

Sugar gliders are playful, curious animals that usually love to hang around with both their cage-mates and their human caretakers. Given their herbal affinity for pouches, they normally love to curve up in a blouse pocket or in a material pouch. Pouches designed for sugar gliders are commonly to be had in pet shops.They must be handled each day by using their owners to grow to be tame or they have a tendency to be nippy. Thus, they're no longer superb pets for families with very young kids. Since they're nocturnal, they may be fine for humans who have time available to deal with them at night time. Given their brief movements and inquisitive nature, they have to handiest be allowed out in their cages even as carefully supervised, in pet-proofed regions loose of electrical cords and different dangerous objects on which they might chunk.

In what passed for once upon a time to an entity of the infinite persuasion, God noticed some of his celestial flock had become listless, disengaged, and even a wee bit crabby...God's Little Red Pen is an original short story that wraps a humorous "what if?" into the grand "how & why?" by showing us an alternate take on creation where an exasperated God, looking to break his celestial flock out of a collective funk, enlists the help of his angels to work on his newest pet project: a little thing called "The Universe." From matter to mammals to math, every idea is up for the making so long as it passes one simple test; serve a purpose or be X'd from existence by God's little red pen. (Sorry, Mr. Jackalope.)While not everyone is thrilled about the whole affair (just ask the seraphim in charge of geology), one plucky angel's creations will either make her a legend...or land her a first class ticket to purgatory. Often funny, sometimes sad, and maybe a teeny bit thought provoking, God's Little Red Pen is a quick and quirky look at the big bang, where even a deity can be surprised by the imagination of his own creations.
