I always try to be helpful and provide factual information confirmed by many sources. You are welcome. Have a Happy Holiday Season Matt.

The 68th Battalion, 6th Armored Division wasn't overrun by any Panzer Divisions in any surprise attack despite what your countless google searches may show. They were only alerted on the 22nd and did "manage to have a wonderful holiday dinner" on Christmas. So I think they probably had time to white wash their tanks given that they weren't engaged until New Year's and were on the offensive. But thanks for sharing your very much incorrect thoughts, it's appreciated!

With all this talk about white wash. I thought what the heck and purchase this awesome tank. So I just purchased it! Can't wait! It is a great looking Sherman!

And regarding questions about White Wash. I highly recommend ATB Battle of the Bulge. It definitely shows Allied tanks with White Wash painted on the vehicles. When I can home I can try to point out some specific pages.

Great news Brad!! look forward to some photos once you received your new tank.

Will do Sammy. Looking forward to getting it. My first Allied Tank. Looking forward to the BOB figures as well. I would guess we will see a winter jeep.

Looks like the tank is sold out at First Legion.

I hope FL does an M4A3E8 as it would be more appropriate for December 1944. The 76mm gun was far more effective and at longer range than the 75mm.

I don't think Gen. Patton would approve of that Sherman sitting still. Great BOB version of the classic tank.
