    I was browsing through a book of cutaway drawings yesterday, and happened on one for the T-34/76. Apart from being very interesting from a modelling point of view ;) , it did show up one important fact that I had not properly taken in before.

    The T-34/76 had a crew of 4.

    2 in the hull - Driver & hull mg gunner (and radio operator, if their tank was lucky enough to have a radio).

    2 in the turret - gunner & commander.

    This meant of course that the commander had to load the gun, which is less than ideal...
