    Hi Don!

    I made the list from the resources of different books:

    Fred Koch (Beutepanzer im ersten Weltkrieg)

    Heinrich Kaufhold-Roll (Der deutsche Panzerbau im ersten Weltkrieg)

    Wehrtechnik und wissenschaftliche Waffenkunde Band 15 (Sturmpanzerwagen A7V)

    Maxwell Hundleby & Rainer Straheim (The german A7V tank and the captured british Mark IV tanks of world war I)
