Michael, neither the Sherman III or V had a loader's hatch or the cupola style commanders hatch with vision blocks. Like Geoff said, these were features of the improved generation of Sherman tanks which did not come into use with Canadian units until after WW2.
The Sherman VC Firefly did have a loader's hatch, this was part of the conversion carried out to fit the 17-pdr gun.
Thanks for the help guys!!
