British Tanks Have Had Tea-Making Equipment Installed Since WWII

This might just be the most British thing imaginable, even compared to a bulldog in a Union Jack sweater, mated with a pile of PAL-format Monty Python VHS tapes while force-feeding it a pureéd Sinclair Spectrum mixed with Heinz baked beans. This raw, uncut Britishness I’m talking about is the fact that every British tank made since WWII has on-board equipment specifically designed to make tea.

I suppose this is a reasonably well-known fact, though it was news to me when I learned about it recently, so I’m going to assume I can’t be the only one who was in the dark about this amazing detail and do my best to let all you wonderful readers know, too.
