As a retired former Sherbrooke Hussars, I am gratified that you have chosen to model one of our old tanks. My service was much later, but had the privilege of attending the rededication of Tank Bomb about 10 years ago.

I have attached a shot or two of the restored tank which shows it latest, and hopefully best researched restoration.

The war diary mentions the tanks landing on afternoon 6 June 1944 with their Porpoises and dropping them as soon as practical. These were a steel box with extra supplies carried under the belly. Very few modelers seem to depict this rather unromantic aspect of the landings.
