During Liberation column I got to see a whole parade of Shermans waking up and getting ready for their first day of convoy as Bastogne Barracks. Pure Sherman Tank porn! Dont forget to press like to appease the youtube Gods to spread the video far and wide! Thank for watching!
Narrator: Here we see a herd of Shermans waking for another day. Life is hard for these Shermans. Against the many large felines they often clash to the death with, they simply have no recourse but unity.
This Cobra King is an imposter in desperate need of some track tension. The real Cobra King is waiting for the completion of the museum being built for her. I remember seeing her in front of our Brigade headquarters in Erlangen, Germany. Then after the post closed she was moved to Vilseck. Then in 2004 she was brought back to the US
You know Rita, the unit I was assigned to when I was stationed in Germany was the 2/27th Armored. It was elements of that unit which in WWII was known as the 37th heavy Tank, that first linked up with the 101st Airborne at Bastogne. The 37th Heavy Tank was the point Regiment of the 4th Armored Division of General George S Patton Jr.'s 3rd Army!
I am USA army retired, M1A1 tanker it is good to all the old tanks rolling on, it have taken lots of work and money those old tanks going and the people of Bastogne, to know and appreciate where what took place in their city many years ago
It feels so good to see Cobra King running under its own power I spent three years in Germany trying to get people to start a restoration project but no one in the chain of command at that time had any interest instead they spend their time and effort restoring a fake Thunderbolt 7 (M4A1 76mm HVSS) a few times I would sit on the driver's hatch and eat my lunch Ferris Barracks erlangen Germany Co.

@@RitaGamer You're very welcome. I've loved tanks since I was a kid but never did much with them. When I did reenactment we were crew for a replica Tiger which was fun. I prefer German and British armour but still great to see these beats awaken!
@@user-fl1bq6uo5l Oh I know!! Some of the best variants of the Sherman were done by the Israeli's... I just didn't know they made cast hull E8's... I thought they were all welded hulls...
Think of all the Sherman's that where made for European theater,if we had chance to turn back time,and bring them all here now,we have largest invasion force in the world,but anyway they are so beautiful,wonder if you and Sofie got together,you both be unstoppable,and women be unstoppable.
Amazing line up of WW2 US heavy metal.The M4A3E2 Jumbo is a particularly impressive and rare beast. I think only about 234 were made.
And I think there's only 10 of them left!

Look at all of those Sherman's! What a beautiful site!!

@Ulf Knudsen Tanks are always the stars!
My grandfather served in a Sherman like these during WW2, always had a love for these tanks
Cobra King moves out faster in the morning than I do.

@@22LittleJoe22 correct on both points. That said, it is an excellent replica but the track tension made me cringe as it was backing up.

Great to see the different variants lined up like that, thanks for posting.
I know some people would appreciate that! Thank you so much for watching!
Great collection. Love the Jumbo. We don't need no stinking sandbags.
damn that sound , hairs were standing up , thank you for uploading this rita
I see you are also a man of culture!
You could hear in Rita's voice how much she enjoyed the vibrations.
Ahah yes! Couldn't contain myself!
Thank you Rita, your a doll for sharing
My pleasure! 😊
It's good that people have invested their time and big money to restore these Shermans. They are a thing of beauty😎 thanks Rita, great video!!
Thank you so much darling!
What a lovely sight. My Uncle (Royal Engineers) fought alongside these in Normandy, Belgium and Holland.

the tank about 4 min 30 in looked like ithad some siezed links cause they were snapping and binding
Greetings from Israel , where we kept our M 51 ( super) Shermans operational up to the 1980's
This video could be demonetized because it's straight ear porn.
Thanks for sharing Rita- the weather looks ok this day - not like the other 75 Battle of the Bulge videos I see.
Must have been so exciting to study a herd of Shermies up so close!
Fabulous video Rita. thank you and the museum so much.
Thank you for watching dear!
Would love to commute to work in one of these. I could park anywhere I wanted to!
Love seeing these old tanks running.

Normally when I think of all time favorite WWII engine sounds, the Merlin is first and foremost. But that was pretty damn cool too.
Thank you Rita
Reminds me of firing up the M60 platoon. 😊 thanks beautiful.

2:50 was that a caste hull easy8?
There's a M4A3 E3 Jumbo too with 75 mm,super rare 👍😊
Enough armor to make a WW II general jealous. What a feat! Thanks.
Could you imagine the noise of a few hundred at once?!
Awesome content as ever Rita!!
Thank you so much!
@@RitaGamer Now if we can just get you to play on NA you'd be perfect :P
And 50,000 of these were built!!!
I didn't know they made Sherman E8's on an M4A1(cast hull) chassis.. I have never seen that before.

that's pretty heavy metal
I’m surprised Nick Moran didn’t randomly appear and steal the commander’s position on one of them
Nah that one just likes to walk in front of my camera on purpose to ruin my footage.
The Sherman Jumbo
Freshly restored!
Rita Sobral it’s ready to resist 88mm shells again!
Let's hope that there is not a panther lurking somewhere, it would rain on the Sherman parade.
The Sherman herd is protected by Firefly, poor Panther wouldn't last long.
