Episode 205 - Sherman V
On this edition of The Panzer Podcast we delve into the T5 Phase I, II, III, T5E1, and T5E2 and the beginning of the direct line of the M4 Sherman predecessors. From here on out we are moving steadily towards our Sherman and the first combat foray in North Africa. We've still got a little ways to go, but I promise you we're getting close!
So strap in-- and let's learn about tanks.
Enjoy! John Burgess
