Anti-Tank Regiments

Anti-tank regiments usually consisted of 4 gun batteries although sometimes they had only 3. They were originally deployed at Divisional level but later Corps were also allocated units. They deployed in defensive positions or ambushes and did not go “tank hunting” like the Americans, even when they had self propelled guns.
