Floating Tanks Were Deployed
The Sherman Duplex Drive Tanks (also known as “Donald Duck” tanks) were equipped with foldable screens that could be unfolded at any point during the war period. The vehicle will be transformed into a crude boat after it has been unfolded. The tanks were propelled forward by a set of propellers at a speed of approximately 5 miles per hour. The duplex drivers who were assigned to Juno, Sword, and Gold fared significantly better than the duplex drivers who were assigned to Utah and Omaha. The Omaha one sank because they had to cross longer stretches of water and encountered rougher waves than they had anticipated.
