High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The British Mark I was a tracked vehicle developed by the British Army during the First World War, and the world's first combat tank. The Mark I entered service in August 1916, and was first used in action on the morning of 15 September 1916 during the Battle of Flers-Courcelette, of the Somme Offensive.
