It used to be called Discovery Wings. And AAolds you might wanna give up and hide under a rock for a while because the Sherman Firefly did not have a flamethrower. I have seen almost every program on the military channel and the history channel and have seen the sermans with flamethrowers but they arent the fireflys and they didnt call them that on TV eather. Your just assuming that because the firefly has FIRE is its name that its the verson with the flamethrower on it and your wrong.

That'll be the same movie where the Americans capture the Enigma code.

Ive tried to be accomodating, I have not at any point claimed to be completely 100% right on this matter.  I agree that online research does not confirm this.  If I find facts that conclusively answer this matter, Ill post it and eat my crow with it, until then, im done with the matter.

I was just answering you and being playful as you were.  No hard feelings on my part.

I am sure you did mean this tank:

Its just that its not the Firefly, but a variant of the M4 Sherman.

you are 100% wrong about this. There was a serman with a flame thrower but it wasnt the firefly. You will not find any research that will prove you right. Yet there have been a few people that posted links proving you wrong.

After bugging my Uncle more about the matter (cost me a 6 pack, well worth the cost), he  confirmed that his tank was not a "firefly".   I had heard him wrong, his tank did have a flamethrower as he was on Iwo Jima and he said that it sure did make the fire fly on the Japanese.

I WAS WRONG.  Now go back to having fun or I'll be wrong about something else.
