Sherman III mated to Churchill Ark. Feb 1945 Extreme rarity 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Why-oh-why would a Sherman be parked on top of an Ark and light housekeeping be set up?! Stacking two tanks atop one another then applying camou seems a tand counter-intuitive. A 3-tier stack of tanks would've been MUCH more unobtrusive. :confused: :eek: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flammenwerfer Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Wicky Are you sure that's the MkI? Looks more like the MkIa Canadian variant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Canadian service, in keeping with our tradition of naming AFVs after furry critters (Leopard, Grizzly, Cougar, etc.), it was known as the "Richardson's Ground Squirrel". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

von Lucke Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I think it's a Halloween prank --- note that both tanks are covered in wide swaths of TP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Kiwis will go to any length to get their target. In February 1945 Lt. Frank White of B Sd. 20 Armoured Reg. emplaced his Sherman III in top of a Churchill Ark in order to obtain sufficient elevation to fire a German SP gun on the other side of the Senio River. While waiting for their target to show the tank was partially covered with straw to disguise it as a haystack and white sheets placed over it to simulate snow." Who wanted more obscure camo for the Italian campaign? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoofyStance Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 You guys have it all wrong, those are Polish wooden dummy tanks awaiting deployment - they were built entirely out of toothpicks. The tree in front was a sapling when the Poles first started. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No really, the one on bottom is the hull of a Churchill, not M3 Hull (which the Canadian Ram was based on). Once the Sherman with 75mm Gun was avalible there was no need for a MBT with a 2 pounder, or 6 pounder gun like the Ram I and II; thus the turret was removed to make the Ram Kangaroo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
