John:
I found the other sherman book with the cupola close up you needed. I'll scan it in the morning and have it here for you. It's pretty clear. I would have done it when I found the book, but I haven't scanned anything on the new all in one printer. So I get it sorted out and posted.

Here is the pictures for your hatch. These are pretty detailed. I apologize for dragging my feet. The new wireless is different.

John:

Great job thus far! I hope the hatch pictures were helpful. You did well with the U.S. OD! I had always been under the impression that the Brits left the U.S. OD as-is, however I found that wasn't the case until after D-day. I mixed up the British SCC15. Quite a different shade all together! Anyway, keep at it. My time is drawing near for heart surgery scheduled on 12 Sept 12. So my spare time is less to work on my project because of preparations.

P.S. Your package was returned to me because the postage came off. The good news was I kept the receipt and it's back on it's way to you.

It's arrhythmia. They are going to do ablation for a second time. My heart is healthy and I have no blockages. It kind of came on all of the sudden. I thank you for the kind wishes! Let me know when you're in posession.
