Default Re: Dismounting Crews

related to this question.

From my reading and hearing veterans speaking, WWII tank crews who had their tank seriously hit, and immobilsed, almost always tended to immediately 'bail out', before they were hit again and 'brewed up'(ie set on fire/exploded).

This was especially the case with tanks like the Sherman that had a reputation for catching fire easily.
