Hi guys,

I'm trying to find photos of Post-WWII M36(B2) tank destroyer usage. I've found the shots on JED and Chars Francais, as well as in the "standard" Squadron and Concord books on Korea and Vietnam, but I was hoping to find more...

1) Are the New Vanguard and Squadron on the M10/36 of any use for Post-WWII?
2) Does anyone have any shots of Post-WWII vehicles, or knows where I might find more? I'm interested in Vietnam (French), Pakistan, and Yugoslavia.

Thanks a lot

Olaf

There is a book called "The Balkans on fire" by Yves Debay & James Hill.
It's a Concord series no 4009.
There you have a bunch of images of M36 during the war in Croatia and Bosnia.
The book is realy good and offers 96 pages of colour images on various equipment used in the conflict, including UN-vehicles.

Olaf,
Here's a few shots of one that is in the collection at the Virginia Museum of Military Vehicles. This vehicle is unrestored and was sent to the museum from some part of the "slavic" eastern europe.

M36 Jackson
Later,
Tim
