Unlike the co-driver bow gun.
Part of my poking fun at the need to “re-install” the item.
Could well be a most current inspection may reveal the part has been removed.  |
Slightly off topic, but relevant to the discussion of Shermans. I see in the top of the left side image "turret cradle lock". Is this a fixture to immobilize the main gun to prevent damage to the gunner's aiming mechanism, the same way other Shermans have a triangular travel lock for the barrel?
