THE AFTERMATH AT MONKEY POINT - The sole survivor of the tank, MURDER Inc., was its driver, Guy Crull. He became known as "The Tank Pilot," given that he had flown a tank higher than anyone had ever done before, and survived, however barely.

 

"Sgt. Waddley, my tank commander, was blown in half, and died from shock  when he saw both his legs were gone. Jenkins was the gunner, and he lost his legs. Larry Farris  was assistant driver.  When the explosion happened the 75 mm went through him backwards. Lagrange was the loader.  The gun mounting blew and crushed his head."
