Hello All

PS. and a pinpoint Question of looking for a Picture of GGHG,FGH or LdSH M4 105's.
Thanks and look forward to your replies.

Default 1st Hussars Shermans

There is a Facebook group of 1st Hussars something. I've seen photos posted there.

Consider browsing the Canadian archives ?

1.) Ist Hussars near Zetten, January, 1945. Image credit Library and Archives Canada, MIKAN no. 3207720.
2.) South Albertas, Bergen op Zoom, October, 1944, MIKAN no. 3200973.
3.) Dutch children riding LSH Sherman, Harderwijk, Netherlands, April 1945, MIKAN 3202553.

Thanks for the Input, I have seen the first two, not the last one. I have tried the archives as well as here and every time I use search it says no results. Is there something I have to do first??

Hi Eugene

I use this LAC link:

http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discove...es/search.aspx

The terms "Horse" and "Hussars" gives results.

"Sherman" also gives many many results!

regards
Darrell

I like the use of Panther track on the Sherman V turret.

Hi Eugene

Sorry that there was nothing there for you.

I do have the 1H, SAR, and GGHG history books and will have a look in them for you for pics that may meet your needs.

Unfortunately, I am far away from home on a tasking at the moment so it will be nearer to the end of January before I can look.

regards
Darrell
