Advice needed for liberation of Normandy

Many American paratroopers were dropped far from their landing areas on the night of June 5/6, 1944, but I don't think any of them went as far East as the Gold, Sword, and Juno beaches! 

Of course during Market-Garden that September, American paras held the bridges (at Grave and Nijmegen) for the British XXX Corps.  And elements of the 101st AB helped "rescue" the Brits from Arnhem at the end of the operation. 

But generally they were pretty separate. 

I suppose I have to get that Sherman to support my US infantry now. That cleared up wat I need to do now.

Finally I decided to do a liberation of Normandy city dio.

Thanks Brumbles.

If it was a city dio, you could do a Cromwell in Polish markings (I think they used Cromwells) meeting up with American INfantry after the closing of the Falaise Pocket.

Hey David you are right. The Polish 10 Cavalry Brigade defended alongside 2nd Battalion US 359th Infantry Regiment at the village of Chambois.

Though the Polish army mainly uses Shermans. they also have a number of Cromwell tanks as well.

Thanks man, that was a good lead for me. I always forget about the other Allied forces(Polish, Canadians etc) that fought bravely during WW2.

Peace bros,

I like to clarify n important issue on the US WW2 uniform. Am I right to say that the US army used the M1937 wool shirt and trousers thru out the war? Photo below.

The only general difference is the field jacket being used  are the M1941 and the M1943.

I'm painting my US infantry from the 80th infantry div(the blue ridge) during the liberation of Argentan on Aug 1944. So is it most likely they might be using the M1943 field jacket OD#7(top pic)?

Just something I need to be sure b4 I start on myn models. Thanks.

I think its the second one.
