Nice picture. I agree, that tank has never been a VC. BTW the anti-freeze stencil is a British add on.

All,

Thanks for your input. There is no doubt this Sherman V was never converted into a Firefly, and therefore could not have been "Argyle", which was a Sherman VC Firefly of the Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) it currently depicts.

I am hoping one day someone will recognise the meaning of "Argyll Roger" so we can trace it back to a unit which used this Sherman. Kevin's remark about the placement of the name may help in identifying certain regiments which adopted this practice?

Thanks,
Hanno
