Looks like a Sherman Firefly.One of those killed German tank ace Wittmann and his whole crew,17pdr shell penetrated the turret armour and set off the ammo.

Ahhh, a fellow Wittman aficionado. I built so many Tiger/Wittman models as a child. You know, there is a bit of controversy as to what or who blew him up.

BTW, in my Marine career (1981-85) I was a TOW missile man. I used to fantasize about having a Tiger, Panther, or King Tiger in my sights. T-34s were too damned ugly.

List of US armored fighting vehicles and their locations (think: the tank in front of the VFW hall).

Great for when you travel.

If you'd like to see a really awesome WW2 video Google ‘’Tank Duel at The Cathedral, Cologne, Germany'' A Panther tank knocks out a Sherman and then is knocked out bt a newly deployed Pershing tank with a 90mm. gun.
