In such service, having a common fuel with many of the landing craft simplified logistics. The M4A2 was also supplied in large numbers to Russia as well as the British. The M4A2 was used in some of the most severe tank combat of the war, both on Pacific islands and on the Eastern Front. This book chronicles the development and use of these vehicles from concept to combat. Through dozens of archival photos, many never before published, as well as detailed photographs of some of the finest existent examples of surviving vehicles, these iconic armored fighting vehicles are explored, and their history is explained. Author of more than 125 books, David Doyle in 2015 was presented the Bart Vanderveen Award, recognizing “the individual who has contributed the most to the historic preservation of military vehicles worldwide” by the international Military Vehicle Preservation Association.
