I'm wondering about the M4A2 76mm Shermans that the Russians got, would they have shipping stencils on them? What about US serial numbers? In the photos I have it is not clear and by those I would say no, but thought I would ask.
Defiantly had shipping information stenciled on them. I have some pics. I'll post them when I find them. Not sure about US Registration numbers. But its possible. Contrary to what some say. I've been finding that Blue Drab RN numbers were still used late in the war. These BD numbers are very hard to see in Black and White photos.
Hey speedster. Im working on mine right now as well. From what Ive found out some of the tanks were shipped with stencils in Cyrillic and English. Tanks were left 3/4 full of diesel as well. Archer makes a set of stencils for an M4A2 but im not sure if they are in Russian. Some were also shipped with blue drab registration numbers too. Pretty much up to you if you want to include them.
