Armor valued in Korean War by RGTC instructor
Capt. Harry B. Hardy, new RGTC armor instructor at the University of Arizona, says armor played a vital role in Korea.

He contrasts the Russian T 34 with the Patton tank, calling the latter superior, and emphasizes that the best antitank weapon is another tank.
