Default RE: Pershing Question

Jeremy, Not so much in WW II, but every tank in Korea carried a camo net. M-26, 45 and 46 had plenty of stowage space and were normally seen one of the front or rear fenders. They were used in areas where we could extend a brush/tree area to cover part of the tank, or for extended periods set up more stable position. Camo nets were never draped over a tank, unless it was a very short, quick move to a different firing location. They hang up on everything, get caught and jam mechanisms, get in the way of movement in and around the tank and they burn real easy....and are no great fun to set up or tear down and stow. [:'(]
