Sort of started off in reverse here. Joined some campaigns (have to hussle to finish one??) posted some pics (more to follow) and only now am introing myself. Been building armour since mid 60s and seriously since 85. Mainly exotic Shermans(Polish, Chinese, Ugandan, Flail etc) & some not so exotic. Did a bunch of modern and Arab/Israeli wars stuff. Spent 31 years and still going in Army Reserve (Infantry ).

Really enjoy this site and the interactivity of its members, great to be aboard!

Howdy INDIA11A,
A hearty "Welcome Aboard!!" goes your way.
Glad to have with us. And, just so you don't miss it, there is a fledgling Canadian-based Campaign just starting up called (I think) "Operation Canuck'?
Checki it out, you might have some fun.

Saw a number of your Shermans before I found this welcome thread. As you can tell I too am a Sherman fan but I am more concentrated on WW2. Take a look in my gallery.

India11a, not only do I welcome you to this site, but want to thank you for turning me onto it too!
Having seen your collection in person and having spent many nights discussing various facets of it I must say that you are indeed a Shermaholic. I do have one question for you though... There is a glaring gap in your collection, and THAT is a Sherman in its "natural" state! A burnt out hulk. :-) Going to make one soon?
Cheers mate,
