Camo Netting on Sherman Firefly Mk Ic (Hybrid).....
'Afternoon All,
Two questions for those more knowledgeable than myself - I'm currently working on a large scale model of a Sherman Firefly Mk Ic (Hybrid), from the 28th CAR (British Columbia Reg't). One photo I have of the tank being modelled dates from April 1945, in Germany, showing a Firefly from A Sqn, BCR, 4th Arm'd Bge, 4th Cdn Arm'd Div.
My Questions are:
1. Is there a pattern for the cloth strips hanging from the netting (for British/Canadian camouflage netting), and it's colour?
2. Did the netting cover the entire turret, top as well as the sides, or was it just secured around the sides of the turret.
I can't provide the photo here, but can do so by private e-mail.
Many Thanks for the assist.
