Check out THE SHERMAN REGISTER which is operated by Hanno Spoelstra in the
Netherlands. There is also a discussion area on this web site where Sherman
fanatics gather to answer questions etc.

In Canada there are a lot of Shermans as war memorials. These were bought
from the USA in 1945 I believe. I am not up on my Sherman ID but they have
the long gun and wide tracks and are I believe M4A2E8. Diesel. Similar model
were used by Canadians in Korean War.
