Widely regarded as the workhorse of the U.S. Army, the Sherman was used by practically every Allied army in their quest to stop the Axis powers. The tank proved so reliable that by June 1944, nearly 50,000 battle-ready vehicles had been produced.
This tank is a 1:43 replica of “Thunderbolt,” the Sherman commanded by then-Col. Creighton Abrams during the epic eight-day siege at Bastogne in December 1944. From this tank, Abrams commanded Combat Command B of the 37th Tank Battalion, 4th Armored Division, during the Battle of the Bulge.
