Well I heard there were quite a few female tank drivers in the Russian army which is interesting. As the “Driver” was actually the second in command of the tank crew (unlike their western counterparts) usually calling the shot (or warning the Gunner when about to break for a snap shot) and picking the route (as the Tank Commander was usually overloaded doing other things other than actually being able to command the tank before they got a 3 man turret installed..Think the first was the T34/85 in widespread use…so quite late on in the war)
