A tank story, that is often misconstrued, and used as click bait... the tank on Juno beach that got stuck in a 60 foot crater

 

The Churchill AVRE "One Charlie" on display at Graye-sur-Mer was part of 26 Assault Squadron, 79th Armoured Division. 

The story of One Charlie can be found in his memoir "Blowing Our Bridges". 

The tank tried to cross a flooded area behind the dunes. 

The tank blocked the beach exit and was pushed into the water, then used to support a girder bridge for other tanks and infantry to cross the waters. 

The Tommies called this "Pont AVRE". 

The tank was buried after D-Day and all but forgotten until it was dug up and restored by French engineers in 1976
