Every time while seeing Sherman's small 76mm gun, I can't stop thinking of those 3 Shermans in "Kelly's Heros", with 90mm tube on their 76mm gun barrels, try to cheat Krauts that their Shermans have got bigger guns.

That 76mm gun was hardly a "door-knocking" tool to Tiger-1, let alone to the King Tiger.

But, just as Oddball said: "The only weakpoint of the Tiger, is it's arse. You got hit it right from behind!"

Dale. Just a joke: if you can sit an Oddball figure in your Sherman, aiming the 76mm gun on your Tiger---right from behind.
That would be a very interesting scence.

See you on the show.
