Jack,
Holy Roller landed on D-Day, covered 2,500 miles to V-E Day. At Apeldoorn, was hit by an A/T gun that damaged the track and suspension on the left side. Last action was at Godensholt, Germany. I will see what else I can dig up. At the last D-Day parade the regiment held, they interviewed the gunner, William Reed, who vividly remembered backing the tank up to a German casement on the afternoon of D-Day, hooking up pipes to the exhaust and sticking them into vents on the casement to gas out the occupants.
