Re: Most Underrated Tanks of World War II

The germans had a nother name for the sherman ronson, lights the first time, after the ronson cig lighter. One thing about the sherman was that for every one the germans blew up they had about 10 more waiting to replace them. The germans did not have that many tigers to replace the ones that they lost during the war.

I thought that was the British Tankers nick name for it.

IMHO - The only reason the Sherman was any good was because they were swarming around like midges on a scotish highlands summer night.

The Panther, Tiger, etc would fall down in my eyes because they were a mechanical nightmare.
 

Ooops!
