These Tanks were either captured by the combat forces in usable conditions, or were quickly made usable, in order to replace their own losses or strengthen
their fighting power. There were tanks -quite a large number of them- used as invidual units in various units, even within infantry divisions. The most
important condition was to find drivers and crew who could operate the weapons. Most of these tanks, however, had a very short life, since spare parts and/or
ammunition were not available. In the latter case they were often used as tow vehicles.
