shermans.

my uncle was a tanker in WWII. served in shermans and cromwells. The Sherman
was called a "ronson" after the cigarette lighter of the same name. Popular
banter on tactics was if you see a tiger what do you do??.Get out of the tank.
it's safer. Numbers and the close ranges of the bocage helped but he
maintained that watching shells bounce off of a tiger was not a heartening
sight!!
