Looks terrific Blimp, outstanding build! I started to wonder about that padlock, clearly it wasn't to keep the Germans out but anyone who wasn't part of the tank crew.

WOW! That Sherman says "Desert" in so many ways. The work you have accomplished...the quality of your photos...you've given me exophthalmos.

Blimp: I see white (?) shirts on your UK tankers. I know some of the DAK bleached out their shirts to stay cooler. Did the British do the same?
