Alexander ◊ 2005-10-09 21:33	Thanks for the translation. I now even found out who built this light tank: Cadillac Motor Car Division and General Motors Corporation. As it had Cadillac engines I'll add that as maker. The French Army used it after the war; that's why it is in the film. http://www.chars-francais.net/archives/m24.htm
