Hey goes I was reading another thread about the size of some air crew and it reminded me of something I heard a while ago, during ww2 did the British army tank corps stop enlisting men for tank crews that were over a certain build?

Saying "Small men are what we need for the tanks, not big ones"

It comes from a story I read about a soldier who during training while escaping his tank while some high brass was there, banged his head and knocked himself out on the tank hull. This man was above average height, and upon seeing this did the above quote. Is there any truth to this?
