my first american ww2 tank, the M4 Sherman early production.
its a 1/48 scale from tamiya. sorry about the picture quality though, i just cant seem to get it right.
This is a brief description of the M4. I kind of forget the description part.
The Medium Tank M4 was the primary tank produced by the United States for its own use and the use of its Allies during World War II. Production of the M4 Medium tank exceeded 50,000 units, and its chassis served as the basis for thousands of other armored vehicles such as tank destoyers, tank retrievers and self-propelled artillery. In the United Kingdom, the Lend-Lease M4 was dubbed the General Sherman after Union General William Tecumseh Sherman, following the British practice of naming American tanks after famous American generals. Subsequently the British nickname found its way into common use in the US. Following WWII, the M4 medium tank was used by the US until the end of the Korean War. Many nations continued to use the tank in both training and combat roles into the late 20th century.
addition to the info, i have chosen Staff Sergeant Lafayette G. Pool & his crew, Wilbert "Baby" Richards, Bert "Schoolboy" Close, Del "Jailbird" Boggs, Willis "Groundhog" Oiler. They would be the Aces for my Sherman submission.
