We Took the M7 'Priest' into a WW2 Battle - It didn't go to plan!

This week on the channel we’ve done something truly unforgettable… I got the chance to take the legendary M7 Priest self-propelled gun out into a full-blown World War II reenactment battle at the Aquino Tank Weekend!

Mounted up behind the big .50 caliber Browning machine gun, I stepped into the shoes of a WW2 gunner and let loose in front of the crowds. The roar of the gun, the chaos of the battlefield, and the atmosphere of living history made this one of the most incredible experiences I’ve ever had with the Canadian Tank Museum.

In this video, I’ll take you along for the ride, showcase the Priest in action, and share the sights and sounds of the reenactment from the gunner’s seat. Huge thanks to Steel Aces for sponsoring the weekend and supporting events like these that keep history alive — make sure to check them out!
