(As a former member of the Sher H which perpetuates the Sherbrooke Fusilier Regiment, whose tank Bomb has a more storied past that Holly Roller, it pains me to even contribute.) However, if you look for wartime pictures of Shermans, they are filed by a code number in the National Archives' photo collection. With that code sequence, you can trawl through the files and look for other units' vehicles or even Holly Roller to see what would be applicable.

I have found a number of fascinating shots of tanks in Holland winter 44/45 with genuine lived-in appearances. Men in one-piece suits, tanks in hides or of crews preparing their meals. All interesting images with many clues that the texts seem to miss or just never understood.

Good luck. I'll post the code if I find it sooner.
