THE GOSPEL OF THE ROYAL ARMOURED CORPS.
1.In the beginning there was the mud, the trenches and the barbed wire, and
the greatest scourge of all-the machine gun. This made the cavalry sore
afraid and they prayed for redemption, but redemption was not at hand.
2. The dashing people retired from the field of battle and prayed to their
strange gods - sabre, lance and carbine and made obeisance to their great
god of victory, HORSE, praying for deliverance.
3. Their cries not fall on deaf ears, for from the west came a chosen people
worshippers of new and potent gods, Firepower, Armour and Mobility, the
minor deities of the truly great god TANK.
4. The chosen people a kindly and Christian people, heeded the cries of the
cavalry and smote their enemies and drove them from the battlefield.
5. Many were the prayers given onto the chosen people and their god of gods
TANK who had brought deliverance onto the cavalry, the dashing people.
6. But the dashing people turned from the God TANK and their gratitude was
soon forgot and they turned to their former gods, sabre, lance, carbine and
HORSE.
7. But the chosen people sent out missionaries to spread the word of the God
TANK, and eventually some of the dashing people heeded the word and followed
the path of righteousness, and prayed to TANK and were converted.
8. First among the dashing people were the tribe of the Cherry Trousers and
they were greatly honoured for seeing the light and joining the chosen
people.
9. But there were amongst the dashing people the unbelievers who refused to
be converted.
10. But in the East there arose a great pestilence, Adolf, son of
shitelgrober, and this made the Pharisees tremble and some of the
unbelievers were converted.
11. The pestilence spread throughout many lands and great was the cry unto
the mighty God TANK and the chosen people and some of the dashing people,
smote him and drove him from the battlefield.
12. And the remainder of the dashing people were converted and made homage
to firepower armour, mobility and TANK.
13. And the chosen people rejoiced and welcomed the dashing people into the
fold and they all became as one and there is only one God and his name is
TANK.
14. The chosen people now number many but the greatest amongst them are the
ones who spread the word and converted the unbelievers and they are called
TANKIES.
