FGH Sherman
Hi Harold,
That Sherman is from the Fort Garry Horse. In better quality copies you can clearly see the badges on the crew members.
The photo is from the National Archives of Canada, PA 166849 (old number 42128). It is the sister of photo PA 114460 (old number 42127) which shows other tanks of the unit at the same location.
The photos were taken by Ken Bell on 29 October 1944. In 2000, we were able to find the actual location just NW of Reimerswaal at the intersection of A58 and N289 on the attached map.
