Today's episode finally introduces the M4 Medium Tank, "The Sherman", to our wonderful Panzer Podcast audience. The long awaited episode is here to guide us through the T6 Medium Tank prototype all the way up to the very first production of the M4A1 vehicles.

We're ready to get into the meat and potatoes of the Sherman Tank!

I appreciate everyone's continued patience, but we're back baby!
