Shermans....
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.

I can get to the pages where it has the vehicles listed, but tapping on the vehicles doesn't lead anywhere. It will load for a while, then stop.

Jim, There are to many Sherman tanks around... However the first photo of the Sherman with dozerblade and the last one, have one-thing in common They where made with the same type of camera, with the same settings So it could be the same person who made them The M4A1 has no digital information at all Michel _________________ I'm Not Crazy, I'm Just Not You

The M4A1 looks like the one in Hamilton Massachussets, the M4A1(76) HVSS with the altered cupola is one of two next to each that are/were in Ft Lewis Washington. KL

Hi, I have pics of the Ft. Lewis tank, too. I think I climbed up on it and took pics of the MG mount. If anyone is terribly interested, I can see if I can find them...
