yesterday's great discovery in a French M4A2 Sherman
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.

Post subject: yesterday's great discovery in a French M4A2 Sherman
hello,

The M4A2(75) "Montereau" is a tank that served with the 501st Tank Regiment , 2nd French Armored Division and was knocked out in the Ecouves forest on August 12, 1944. It is currently owned by a French association who does some restoration works. Yesterday, I was there and suggested that we could open the grousers compartments at the rear. Here's what we have found, some 70 years after it has been put inside !!

there were 14 grousers in 1 compartment and 12 on the other side.

P-O

Sometimes a polite suggestion from an informed source works wonders!
