Because the "thing" they had fitted onto the tank to allow them to go through the bocage was fitted to the front of the tank..

Rob/1,

One device made from beach obstacles found at Normandy beaches was called the Cullin Hedgerow device. Yup, it was on the front and not on the back. BTW, they gave Sgt. Cullin a medal for it IIRC.

They also gave a medal to the guy who invented the spell checker. Don't let his decoration continue to go to waste Rob...
