Sherman Tank

This Sherman is on display in the town of bastogne Belgum
from the research i have done into this tank. it took part in the Battle of the bulge and was knocked out by a german a/t gun, the round didn't penetrate the hull, but did enough damage to wreck vital parts, the crew bailed out and lived to fight another day.
 
In the early days, the german anti tank guns were so powerful that the shells used to pass right through causing nothing more thatn a hole each side.
 
There's a Sherman inside the Bastogne museum that was hit by an 88. The round appeared to have passed completely through without detonating.
