Fort Lewis #9: North Fort M4A1(76) Sherman, M60A0 & M3 HT
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

These three are located at the North Fort part of Fort Lewis.

The Sherman & M60A0 are located at the LTC Herbert Mills 1-33 Armor Memorial.

M4A1E8 Sherman Easy Eight

M60A0 SN 1209, RN 9B4544. This tank was previously identified as having some M60A1 features? It was apparently High Tank TT (Tank Table?) VIII.

M3 Half-Track at the 8-1 Cavalry HQ. From the bumper I assume this was formerly at a 2nd ACR unit or museum... The data plate on the passenger side said M36236 - I assume that means its M3 SN 6236?

That Sherman looks like an M4A1 (76), not an E8 (no HVSS). _________________ Trevor Dr Trevor Larkum Preserved Tanks: PreservedTanks.com Armour Archive: ArmourArchive.co.uk EVs
