Always fun to look at "old" photo albums (especially someone else's)... 🙂

Ok...A: I have a picture somewhere of me with the same tank 11 years later, and B: I was in E-2s, not the sun kings though! Very cool!

That's a wild coincidence!

That's a cool piece of noseart... but who had a Sherman in the backyard? 🙂

It's on display as a war memorial on a street, somewhere near the Notre Dame De la Garde,

Those are really nice photos, Robert - made me smile for a while. The day I'm having, that's no mean feat.

Isn't that tank right by the river?
Interesting photos, Robert.

It wasn't far from a boat basin-Vieux Port, according to an old map I've saved.
