Hi Steve, as shared elsewhere, I only have generic info but no history on this specific example:
Quote:
“Tank, Combat, Full Tracked, 76 mm Gun, M4A2
In 1946 the Royal Canadian Corps was equipped with 300 M4A2(76)W HVSS Shermans, bought from the US for $1,460.00 each. They were used for training only. After being replaced by Centurions, the Shermans were passed down to various Militia regiments.
The Lord Strathcona's Horse Regiment which served in Korea used M4A3(76)W HVSS Shermans supplied by the USA.”
