Despite a couple of hours on Google and trawling through all my books I can't find a single decent pic of a Sherman II showing markings.
I know that they were used by the 4th Armoured Brigade in Italy and in NW Europe after D-day (black jerboa marking) but need more for my Dragon M4A1 Early with AccArmour details.
If anybody can help out I'd be most grateful.

Dave, Shermans were used on every front the americans had. Heres some pics.

Thanks for the link - But it's British Sherman IIs (M4A1) that I'm having trouble with! I need details of colours and markings.

Sherman II pictures are indeed hard to find outside North Africa. I'm pretty sure there are one or two in D-day to Berlin and David Fletcher's book for Concord though.

Dave,
I Know of a couple of pics of NZ Shermans taken around 1944 give or take a year at the NZ base at Maadi in Egypt. I know you don't want NZ pics but I think these Sherman II's show some camo of some sort and would have come out of Italy.
the pics are in a book I will try and find them online
I can't be sure that they are II's but I am pretty certain they are.

Andy - I have no objection at all to NZ pics - any commonwealth forces would be great - just want Italy or NW Europe.

Roger that Dave,
I will see if I can get the book out from the library later on this week.
You may be able to find it your self. It is called:
Kiwi armour No.1
4th NZ armoured Brigade in Italy
