CHURCHILL TANK RESTORATIONS
A troop of World War Two Churchill Tanks being restored in
time for 70th anniversary of D-Day next year
A partner at a prestigious London law firm with a passion
for tanks has written a revealing account of the fighting
history of the Churchill tank, as well as the painstaking
restoration process involved in bringing them back to life, in
a new book.
Nigel Montgomery, whose Churchill Tank Project owns
three World War 2 era Churchill tanks, is working with a
team to restore them to full running order ahead of next
year's 70th anniversary of D Day. Their work is supported
and assisted by the Tank Museum at Bovington.
Nigel said: “I have always been interested in the role of
tanks in World War 2 and the Korean War, and with so few
veterans of those conflicts remaining, I wanted to found a
restoration project to preserve the memory of what they did
for future generations. Having started my restoration work
with a Cold War era Chieftain tank, which was returned to
full running order, I set out to build a complete project to
restore, and then use, truly historic British wartime tanks.
“For me, the tanks to restore had to be Churchills, which
I regard as the greatest British tanks to fight through World
War 2, and which remained in service to see action in Korea.
The Churchill Tank Project is bringing these unique survivors
back to life in as original and complete a state as possible.
“By doing this we hope to widen knowledge and
appreciation of the Churchill Tank, testing some of the myths
around them, and to pay tribute to those who fought in them.
“These tanks played an important part in our history, and
we are making them available for use in films, documentaries
and the media, as well as for corporate visits and exhibitions
so that the public can share in the knowledge of what they
did, how they drive and sound, hopefully maintaining interest
and pride in their achievements.”
The Churchill Tank Manual includes an account of the
Churchill’s role in battles through much of the War. Based
on actual restorations, archive research and interviews with
veterans, the book presents a meticulously detailed and
extensively illustrated insight into these legendary tanks and
their actual achievements.
The manual uses superb period illustrations, as well as
many previously unpublished photographs and documents
to reveal the Churchill’s development, construction and war
record. The book looks in detail at the tank’s anatomy and
armament but also explores what it was like to use, drive and
operate one in combat.
There are only a handful of Churchills in running order
around the globe, and those being restored by Nigel
Montgomery's Project will be the only ones of their kind
running anywhere in the world. This background gives him a
particular insight as an author on the subject.
Churchill Tank Manual by Nigel Montgomery (Haynes
Publishing) is available now, £21.99.
