I just got an email that my Pershing is processed but the pz III is still pending. I am gathering info from this site on the things to do with the Pershing - I have to admit before I began reading about the Pershing, specifically the [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4959527/tm.htm]Cologne Duel[/link] I had no interest at all in a Pershing. After watching the video and reading the story i ordered the special kit with metal upgrade. I am going to approximate the 3rd AD and Robert Early's tank as best as my meager skills will allow. I have collected some pics from the website Early's brother maintains but they aren't clear on the placement of numbers and insignia, anyone have more pics?

This one shows some markings:

That's not Bob's tank. That's a Marine Corps tank in Korea. Early's tank is distinguishable by the large hole, 20mm, in the driver's side front fender and his tank's serial number painted across the blower housing. His .50 cal wasn't used that day, it was covered up with a canvass tarp or something. Let me see if I have some pictures on the computer.

How the heck can you tell its in the korean war? Heh ...the tank number? I have the few pics from a brief web search from [link=http://www.phil-deriggi.com/john_1.htm]HERE[/link] , thanks for the help

I clicked the site real quick but closed it because of the music, quiet time here. The pics are of his tank as seen in my books.

Now, How do I know that Pershing is in Korea? Easy look at the power lines! No, look at the back of the tank. Postwar (WW2) mods included adding the telephone box, the fender braces and the travel lock was moved off of the exhaust manifold to the rear plate. As for the markings, this is a Pershing of the 1st Marine Tank Battalion, Company C, 2nd Platoon.
