Operation Infatuate II: Sherman tanks at Westkapelle

[Alex van de Wetering]

Excellent news!

This is the opportunity to restore the original markings of the tank, instead of the variety of fanciful markings it has endured ever since it became a memorial.

Exactly my thought! Jakko's book will certainly help with that.
I also hope they will replace those front fenders for some originals, or something that looks close to the original.....even a fender with the correct shape, but without the stiffening rib will look much better that the current flat fender.

I am sure the museum, municipality and local sponsors can work something out.

I agree; the media exposure lately could have a positive effect on that, and I am sure those involved know this all to well.
