Default Sherman hunting - Info welcome

Thanks Grant excellent observation/ sugestion.

Anyone out there have info on that elusive Québec Sherman ?

Am i starting an urban legend here ?

That would be quite a find. My idea is that it was employed for target practice . Like the Centurion's we had in Gagetown on the Air/ Ground range.

I remember firing the .50 cal on my APC turret mount at what ressembled Centurion hulls from 1500 yards . The tracer rounds hit the hull and deflected at right angles. Quite a sight ! Last time i was on that range , the grass was so dry , we started grass fires every time .

That-kachink-that-kachink -that-cachink (typical .50 cal sounds, round firing and spent case extracting )
