DD381(SE) M4 Sherman (#17)

This all-metal M4 includes all the unique features that made our last two 'Tigers' so popular and collectible...
This model belongs to the U.S. Army's 6th Armored Division which landed in Normandy at Utah Beach on 18 July 1944 and immediately went into action in the Cotentin Peninsula, driving through Avranches and helping to liberate the great channel port of Brest and the clearing of the Brittany Peninsula.
Later in December 1944 the 6th and its Shermans were heavily involved in 'The Battle of The Bulge' and the defence of Bastogne alongside the men of the 101st Airborne.
On the 25th of March 1945 the 6th crossed the Rhine and drove towards Frankfurt after which it helped free Allied prisoners of war and assisted in the liberation of Buchenwald concentration camp.
By the end of the war the division had reached Leipzig and halted pending the arrival of the Red Army.
Our K&C all-metal Sherman is painted in the standard U.S. Army 'Olive Drab' and could be utilized in any of the battles and events between D. Day in June 1944 and the defeat of The Third Reich in May 1945.
This model also includes 3 x Crew Figures and 6 x individual sandbags.
Just 200 pieces of this model are available.
