The first M4 Sherman tanks entered service with the U.S. Army in 1941. They were also
adopted and extensively used by British and Canadian forces during World War II and
continued in use through the Korean War. The Sherman went through many improvements and
upgrades during its service career, ending with this model, manufactured in 1945, incorporating
many changes learned from wartime experience. Some Shemnans continue to serve today in
Israel as armored ambulances and chassis for self propelled artillery and mortars. The last
Shermans were retired from Canadian service in 1970.
