A few years ago , a Luxembourgish research group on the Battle of the Bulge (called CEBA) went to great lengths to try to defintely identify the Sherman standing in front of the Castle in Clervaux (Luxembourg).

With there permission i translated this report originally written in Luxembourgish language and, together with a few additions, have now finished to put it on my website.

I believe that the report is an excellent addition to my site about the Diorama Clervaux and i hope you will enjoy this little detective work done by the CEBA.

While you are there, well, i don't hide the hope that some of you may notice my book about the castle build of Diorama Clervaux, and who knows, finally found the ideal gift for the upcoming holidays.

Please visit the site at http://www.diorama-clervaux.com

I would be happy to get some echoes

Enjoy

Claude, Thank you for the great history lesson ! I enjoyed reading the story behind your diorama. I DO hope there is a Volume 2 in the future. Tom

Sorry, but that was way to much work to let it disappear into the depths of the forum after only two days. I will only push it one time, promised.
