Dragon USA say in their release that this version is suitable for D Day but I'm 99.99% sure no M4A3's landed on D Day in Normandy and The M4A3 105 only reached the ETO in July. In fact I'm not aware of any M4A3 105mm tanks being fitted with wading trunks but I'm open to correction.

Hello Pat,
As I remember, M4A3 105mm-s were landed on Okinawa. Maybe with these wading trunks.
Just an idea...
