I also remember as a child playing in the yard, and I heard what I thought was a low-flying aircraft, and I got really frightened because I thought it was going to crash, it seemed that low. I peeped around the corner of the gate, looking towards the Kings Mills Road, looking up towards the Waterworks, and suddenly a tank came into view out of control and it capsized, and actually a couple of drivers were killed. I remember that another tank came along eventually and righted it, but they just backed up the wall and through another wall, and though you can hardly see it, I can still see the repair. As far as I know I think I was the only person who saw that happen. I never heard of anybody actually seeing it capsize, you know. But it was really frightening because I thought it was a plane that was going to crash.
