Maybe that's all there is out there. I think it's kinda amazing you can Google the name of a particular WW2 tank and find something.

I have photos from Hunnicutt's Pershing. Be glad to send you what I have, but you are not going to find many photos of the entire tank. Not many were taken other than what you see in the book. I spoke to Judge Grimball a few years ago and he diodn't have any either. He's the Lt that led the first platoon of Pershings and crossed the Rhein with them. Passed away about 5 yrs ago. PM Me with your email. Bill
