Mystery Vehicle ID & 'Jumbo Spotting'...
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: Mystery Vehicle ID & 'Jumbo Spotting'...

I just moved and as part of the 'new' home, I now am enjoying high speed internet connection. I having been checking out the many film / video segments on 'Critical Past' and found a few interesting items......

Mystery Vehicle ID:

Vehicle 1:
At the 00:23 sec mark, there is a vehicle crossing the Pontoon Bridge that looks like a tank destroyer, but the turret is 'weird', perhaps some kind of 3rd Army 'command vehicle' ??

Vehicle 2:
At the 00:59 sec mark, there is another weird looking vehicle, that I can't seem to identify. (Am I crazy or does it look like a 'T34'...??)

> Link <

As for 'Jumbo' spotting....

On this 24 March 1945 video segment, at the 00:55 sec mark, a 6th Armored Division M4A3E2(76) rolls by.

> Link <

And this 6 May Video has a 'generic' (unmodified) M4A3E2(75) that rolls by at the 00:23 sec mark. Perhaps a 'newly' issued combat replacement tank of the 'reconstituted' 37th Tank Bn...???

Don

The tank with the turret to the rear is a M36 TD-notice how the turret bustle is rounded vs. the M10's being anglular.

The video seems to be somewhat stretched horizontally to me. This makes the M8 in particular look "off".
