David H.

Thanks for the clarification of the hull opening for the beam assembly. Must have made for a very dusty interior!

Would you know if the Crab was intended to operate with a reduced ammunition load for the 75mm compared to the standard Sherman, and not withstanding the field expediencies of individual crews? I am just not sure how much extra weight the Flail System added to a Sherman, nor how much internal space was lost for the modifications, nor what, if anything was given up to make the modification work.
