About This Title:
This 1/72 scale model represents a U.S. Army M4A3 105mm of the 8th Tank Battalion of the 4th Armored Division. This division is distinguished by the fact that it never adopted an official nickname, though the Germans referred to it as “Roosevelt’s Butchers”! The division landed at Utah Beach on 11 July 1944, and combat operations began on the 17th. It was used as an exploitation force for Operation Cobra, the U.S. breakout from Normandy. In August 1944 it swung south to take Nantes, thus cutting off the Brittany Peninsular.
