Strange how life goes.

Have just received the catalogue listing from Bovington Tank Museum on Sherman related material...

There's this one:

E2012.5384
Report on Development of Prototype Sherman Badger Flame Tanks
623.438.37
37 Pages

I'd guess therefore this may be worth a look if you're interested further.

Tim

Tim,

Great find!

I think the Sherman Badger was officially designated "TANK, COMBAT, FULL TRACKED, M4A2 w/e, fitted for flame thrower".
It was the post-WW2 development of the Ram Badger, see http://www.canadiansoldiers.com/vehi...ers/badger.htm for some details.

Regards,
Hanno
