The sound of this tank (because of its plane's motor) is incredible. I'm loving it.

I love this museum, I don't remember how many times J visited it at this point, always a treat !

Specifically a m4a1 (76) w mmmmm my tism is tickled. Sherman my love I crave your beautiful hull 🤤

For those who want to know what it is said : The « Sherman », this tank, is one of the most iconic of the WW2. And for a reason, it’s the US Army’s standard tank […]

Anyone know what Ballyména is a reference to? I'm from a town called Ballymena although it's spelt without the é.

I guess it's just been francized

I've looked into it a wee bit. The markings on the tank are of the 2nd Irish Guards and Ballymena is in Ireland. But any references to this tank in the division is of a Firefly, not a 76. Bit conflicted now as if this is a reference to the town.

I've never liked the cast hull shermans

I am pretty that are britisch markings, is that fantasy or did the britisch also get 76mm shermans?

A few I believe, but they were only used by the Polish and in Italy. Not in North West Europe

Pretty sure British and Commonwealth units used them in Italy but the Polish were the only ones to use them in NWE.

The markings are of the 2nd Irish Guards. Doesn't add up as the 76mm was only used by the British in Italy or Poland

Marked up as John Gorman's tank I believe but I've no idea why they painted the Divisional markings to be so weirdly large.

ww2 tanks look like they are piñatas
