Notice the shell hole in the hull?

[Snafu]

I did not
Thanks

[CINDERS]

I did first up but did not want to comment judging by its local on the hull and perhaps a secondary lower Rt a low profiled AT field piece low down in a street situation as there was no fear of the back up Shermans getting past the road blocker unless it was a Hetzer they had a low profile as well but I still reckon it all points toward an AT fieldpiece.
But seeing all the hatches are open hopefully most of the crew got out although the Rt hand hatch has only one half open, lot of people think tanks are great thats untill a dirty great Tiger plants an AP 88mm into you and well the rest is history only the M 110 tank destroyer really worried the Tiger from the allies the firefly according to Rosen was not much of a problem I mean they stuck it on a Ronsen!

But they had to try something against superior weapons finally twigged the Typhoon with 8 6" rockets and 4 x 20mm oh yeah thats hurting enough???????

Postscript looking at the barrel length on that Sherman I would hazard that that is a Firefly with the 17pdr AT British gun.

Notice the shell hole in the hull?

I did not and was thinking about the pontetial mess created when he ran over the bodies.

Looks like a bunch of land mines to the right of the tank image

See the scallop taken out of the turret on the right side directly above the drivers hatch.
