Help me get my late friend Melvin, who's real Centurion Mk 5/2 tank was u...

I cant find any other contact details but I'd like to get in touch with someone at wargaming regarding the possibility of adding a reward commander into the game. In December 2020 I lost a dear friend called Melvin. Melvin was the Proud owner of a real Mk5/2 Centurion Tank named 'Mistagear'. He had an amazing passion for armoured vehicles owning over 30 of them as well as being a gunner and eventually promoted to a commander in the British Royal Armoured Corp eventually going on to train new tank recruits. What makes Melvin special however, is I do believe it was his Mk 5/2 Centurion named 'Mistagear' who wargaming came and sound recorded for all the in game sounds for the high tier British medium tanks. He told me a gaming company from Russia came and recorded his Centurion doing various things such as driving and stopping/starting. He had no idea who this company was until he met me around 7 years ago and I explained that it was most likely wargaming and that the sound of his tank was in the game. He was thrilled! After having been driven around in 'Mistagear' as well I can confirm the game sounds very alike! I know this is a really long shot but I would love to see him honoured in the game as he was an amazing person loved by a whole community. I understand there are huge logistics behind this so I can only hope. If this is not possible I would at least love to find out whether it was in fact Melvin's tank that was recorded and if there are any records or videos even of wargaming recording Melvin's tank, I miss him a lot. Thank you for reading my message and I hope I'm not causing too many problems by communicating in this way. Adding to this, My friend Melvin was genuinely one of the nicest people I met in my life and his passing was involved in quite a big family tragedy. His passion for armoured vehicles was matched only by his passion to share his knowledge with anyone who asked. He even had a few Chieftains which where a real sight to behold and let me tell you they look even more overpowered in real life! If it was his tank that was used, even though he himself didn't understand his commitment to this game I think it should be recognised in some way. I apricate anyone who takes their time to read this and even if wargaming doesn't see it you have! Which means you've heard of Melvin and his story, and next time you play your high tier British mediums, take a moment to appreciate some of the logistics and people involved in the background of this amazing game. Thanks for you time and happy gamming.
HeatResistantBFG: Hey, What a cool story and I'm very sorry to hear
about Melvin.
The office is off at the moment because of Bank holidays in CZ, but once we're back I'll see if I can poke around to confirm or at least give you someone to contact. Did Melvin and Mistagear have any blogs, websites or youtube videos they were on perhaps?
