Man I sure would hate to serve in a tank crew. It's like a steel coffin.
The WWII Sherman tank was call a coffin on wheels or more appropriately a Ronson, like the cigarette lighter, because “it lights up the first time, every time", because unlike most tanks that ran diesel, the Sherman ran on gasoline.
Right, and it was totally outclassed by the German tanks it was pitted against. Sherman tankers had to use stealth and strategy to go up against a German Tiger
And numbers. But still some historical perspectives are very critical of Patton for pushing for a gas powered tank as being responsible for outright murder.
My late grandfather was a tank mechanic under Patton in France. He told stories of night raids on the Germans to steal their gas. Those superior tanks were useless if they couldn't move them. Once the Axis lost North Africa, from that point on it was a war of attrition since they were unable to obtain the oil fields of Russia.
Almost all armored vehicles in WWII used gasoline engines. A few US Sherman’s (M4A2 and M4A6) were diesel powered.
I thought the German Panzer tanks were diesel like the majority of Russian tanks but see that they were gasoline too.
In the matter of the Russian armor, it was quantity over quality, but it seemed to pay off at a very high cost to human life.
During the Battle of Kursk Russia lost more men than all other belligerent nations did on all fronts. A football stadiums worth of men every week, and every three months more men than the U.S. did during the whole war.
My dad was in Coast Guard during WWII. Had American, European - Africa - Mideast, and Asia Pacific patches during WWII, but mostly fought in Pacific attached to the First Marine Divsion. He drove a landing craft during Guadalcanal, Battle of Tulagi and Gavutu-Tanambogo, Florida Islands campaign.
Stalin once said that “quantity has a quality all its own”.
The actor Eddie Albert was a coastie who resigned to accept a reserve commission in the Navy. He commanded a landing craft at Tarawa and was awarded the Bronze Star with the “V” device for valor for rescuing and supervising the rescue of over 70 Marines. He probably should have been awarded the Navy Cross for that.
Lloyd Bridges and both of his sons also served in the Coast Guard and the Auxiliary.
My Pop was recalled to the Army in May of 1941. He had already completed an NG term by then. He served stateside for over five years training medics and medical technicians.
