    Dad was a driver in a Firefly, he would have been very interested in these videos...... don't know what memories or images they would have stirred in his memory though. I have been in the drivers seat in the Firefly at Bovington, which gave me a very small hint of what dad experienced in the tank. Fascinating to see inside the turret...it must have been incredibly cramped for the 3 crew in the turret, especially when in action. I can not begin to imagine what it must have felt like to fight in these tanks..Excellent video Rita

    that barrel has a special paintjob on it. Better make it a premium tier 6 tanks in WoT

    There already is premium tier 6 Firefly. In fact, it's the welded hull Firefly VC like in this video.

    One of the FEW Sherman variants NOT on display at Yad La-Shiryon (officially: The Armoured Corps Memorial Site and Museum at Latrun; Hebrew: יד לשריון‎) is Israel's official memorial site for fallen soldiers from the armoured corps, as well as one of the most diverse tank museums in the world - which for me , ( a British ex-pat living down the road from Latrun ) is a great pity

    Hey Rita, maybe a stupid question, but could you send the Mighty jingles to Belgium a couple of times please 😜 (preferably in september, he'll probably enjoy the Planes aswell) PS, my profilepicture here, William is the driver and i'm in the top 😉

    The Firefly could carry 59 shells in three storage bins under the turret floor,14 in the space saved by removing the assistant driver, and five in a ready use rack on the turret basket floor, for a total of 78 rounds. (Google factcheck.)

    Very interesting, particularly the turret ergonomics with a much bigger gun. In contrast to self serving negative comments from American sources it looks to be quite usable if not to a **** hotel standard, of course it proved to be a very effective weapon which is what counts.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, But @6:06 I hear someone say they are going to leave you unattended. And you immediately start pushing buttons and lifting floor plates... You where going to 'Load the Gold' weren't you? I bet she even tuned the radio to her Twitch channel. And check her pockets for AP rounds.

    A lot more room in there to sling shells than in the panther.
