Men with silly hats in tiny tanks

Posted for no other reason than the unintended hilarity of the image.

I don't know much about the photo, but I believe that the serious-looking gentlemen wearing the campy mitteleuropäische hats are the bold Hungarian gendarmes and that their comically undersized tanks are Italian Carro Veloce "fast tanks", a design based on the British Carden Loyd Tankette, which itself sounds like the least terrifying weapon of war ever devised.
