ALL TANKED UP

With troops still involved in some incredibly heavy fighting in Al Amarah, north of Basra, KOCH Media UK PR joined the battlefront alongside the First Battalion Princess of Wales' Royal Regiment.

Providing supplies to the troops and a much needed break from duty, CDV Entertainment offered a different kind of action, in the form of Codename: Panzers. Proudly wearing their 'I Love Tanks' t-shirts, the crew stood aboard their armoured personnel carrier in the searing Basra dessert.

Warrior Commander Cpl Simon Gower (sitting astride the 30mm cannon) had this to say. "Panzers has to be one of the best tank computer games I've ever played. I've been into battle a few times and you don't get much closer to it than in Panzers."
