To: colorado tanker

My dad was a tanker way back when and had nothing good to say about Sheridans.

He was a 48 or a 60 TC.

The only guys who liked Sheridans were the Infantry. When you came up to to a well dug in machine gun nest, some guys were likely to die - but then you drive one of those Sheridans right up to firing port of the machine gun position and blast the living crap out of them. Airborne Infantry guys loved them.
