The Sherman was widely used by British troops in WWII, with its first combat debut being in the North African campaign. While the most common variant was the Sherman V (M4A4 in American nomenclature), the second most common was the diesel-engine Sherman III (M4A2). Dragon Armor has released another fine miniature of a Sherman III serving with A Squadron of the Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry. The tank is finished in a typical Mediterranean scheme of light mud and black paint. This particular scheme was officially introduced to all Middle East Command units in April 1943.

Dragon Armor has a number of 1/72 scale Sherman models in its ranks, but this is the first from the Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry. Painted in a distinctive and attractive camouflage scheme, it also bears the name “Barford St. Martin”, this nickname stemming from the regiment’s practice of christening tanks with the names of public estates in their home county of Wiltshire. The model also bears other relevant markings that have been accurately painted. The features on this Sherman tank are masterfully replicated, and it constitutes an accurate model of the real tank. This appealing model in the Dragon Sherman fleet will look at home in any collection, particularly one from the fascinating but oft-neglected Mediterranean theater of operations.
