Xmas Tanks

The National Christmas Tank festival (Celebrated on December 24th) is an event, started 1937, where tanks would dress in the "Christmas Attire" (with Christmas Lights, reindeer ears, and sometimes snow). Tanks would throw candy to children on the streets, and some modified or specifically built snowball tanks would fire snowballs (at low velocity) at teens, and teens fight back.

On December 24th, 12:00 AM, the tanks will hang ornaments on a tree, and in the capital, a giant tree will be placed for painted IS 360 tanks as ornaments. Then, Santa Claus (Not actually santa though) will fly above the sky, dropping presents with parachutes down to children.

Tankish Christmas
In Tankormulte, santa doesn't actually ride a sleigh. He flies a modified DH1 Bomber and drops presents through the bomb bay. Because of this, the sleigh was nicknamed "Santa's Bomber".

Santa's Bomber
The DH1 was a bomber built 1929 as a night time bomber. However, Tankormulte's santa doesn't ride anything, and people needed to come up with one real fast. In 1932, a man proposed an idea to the Holiday Officials of Tankormulte. This DH1 bomber, has its machine guns removed entirely, and was fitted with a larger fuel tank. It was modified to not look like a bomber. By 1933, this idea was fully adopted and then children finally believed in Santa giving presents. However, in 1944, Santa was accidentally shot down over Luckaloy after being mistaken for a UFO. 40mm Anti Aircraft Guns and 95mm FLaK were fired at the bomber, and 9 shots shot the bomber done with 800 rounds of ammunition spent. The man dressed up as Santa, did manage to get out, only to then be shot by an 8.7mm MG.
