Patton's Third Army
Posted by Awasoda on Friday, October 3, 2003 2:31 PM
Hello all,

I would like to do a model of my grandfather's tank durring WWII. I know he drove a tank durring part of the war bu not all of it. I know it was a Sherman, and I am currently asking my uncle information about it so i can know what time he drove it, like was it durring the battle of the buldge or what not. Anyways i was jsut wondering if any of you would know any good websites where i could get some good reference material and pictures.

Thanks

Most photos of Patton's Third Army moving into Bastogne are of M4A3(w) 76mm, with the occassional Easy 8 suspension shown.

Major Rob's got this one pretty much covered ...... best thing to do here though is continue to get the info from your uncle. Narrow the field down quite a bit ( time frame, possible locations, etc). Then it may be easier to narrow the focus for your search.
Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert
