Stan Jersy adds: "The head on the tank was from the 4th Tank in the crossing photo. The first tank was the leader, the second tank was the adjutants tank, the third was the 3d Tank, 1st Platoon, the fourth was 3d Tank, 2d Platoon. The fifth tank was a light tank (3d Tank, 1st Platoon). It is believed there were two bodies in that tank."
