Barracuda, the Bastogne Sherman Tank

[Reg from the Bulge]

As some of you might know , Martin ? The Tank on McAuliffe's Square has been put back in it's place after a full facelift .

I took these pics today and I must say the Barracuda looks brand new .... everything has been restored , new coat of paint , a new pedestal ..... etc ..

 

My first thought was : Great Job . My second one was and still is : Hell , they sucked every tiny bit of history out of it .......

 

But it's one way or another because the tank was in a very bad condition .

 

They also removed the M4 from the Historical center for restauration ...

 

 

 

 

 

Best
