Hi there,

Thanks in advance for your time and kindness

hello scoccia.
I don't know much about sherman, so my answer may not be very accurate : these shermans look like some M4a4, the kind used by commonwealth forces.
Someone around here will certainly be more accurate !

The first two pictures look like M4A4 (75) Dry Shermans. The third picture looks like an M4 (75) Sherman. The fourth picture is a Sherman Vc Firefly.

The first two highly probable that they are M4A4's, the third...I wouldn't want to wager any bets, The fourth Vc Fireflies.

Roger that.
It's really hard to tell with just a frontal shot, because they all look very similar or the same (except, of course, for the cast-hulled M4A1 -- which can easily be confused with an M4 composite hull).
