Hey Marcos ... ok here we go ,, those tanks are mixed up and the writer got it wrong .. the Sherman you can see in the middle is a Sherman III / US M4A2 ,,the closest one is any ones guess cause we cant see the hull but with the turret you could say either Sherman I or II / US M4 or M4A1.maybe even M4A2.
The Sherman in the middle i would believe to be a M4A2 ,,found a pic in one of my books and its exactly the same and has it listed as a Sherman III / M4A2 ,,after some very close looking the mantlet looks much like a M34 so thats sorted .

Should of stuck with that statement. It is a M4A4, not a M4A2. You can tell by the larger gap between the roadwheels on the VVSS units.
