IPaul72: Hello there Logs had many uses on the tanks some was for
small ground neutralization, some where used as chocks and
other uses included rear guards protection among other
things. There were many other uses too ... for example the
Finnish army used logs to jam tracks (early light soviet
armor I believe) and disable smaller light tanks. This was
done by placing the log near the drive sprocket and letting the
sprocket tension the track so much it immobilised the light
tank and therefore rendering the vehicle pretty much useless.
However, as tanks got heavier and bigger this wasn't a tactic they
could rely on. However, this topic belongs in the historical
discussions area so I will move it there. Kind Regards
