The Matilda Infantry Tank Mark II or the Matilda II Tank “Anteater,” 1st Australian Tank Battalion, New Guinea, January 1944. Despite using tanks that were obsolete by the standards of the war in Europe the contribution of the Australian Armored Corps to the success of later campaigns was significant, lessening causalities among the infantry and demonstrating the role of tanks in jungle operations.
