 Subject:  Trying to figure this Sherman Out.List thread.  
  
 Date:  Mar 11, 2006
 From:  Alan Eaton 
There is this Sherman in front of a NG Armory here, and I can't figure the make of it out, as its a little wonky.

The Turret has the single piece commanders hatch, and the narrow mantlet 75, as well as an additional plate on its cheek. The Hull (welded, not cast) has the bulges in the front for its crew, but a plate welded over them so they can't use a vision slot of there is one.

But it also has the E9 double duckbill suspension set up.


I've never heard of that sort of combo at all.

Thanks for anyone who can figure it out for me. :)
