My Brigades HQ has a Firefly at the entrance.....I dont know if its the original color but it is almost a red and black skin.
Anyone know if there was a Firefly with a skin like that? Looks pretty cool :salute

Don't ever remember seeing a Firefly at Drum. Must have missed that one.

Might want to double check on whether it's a Firefly or some other Sherman variant. Real surviving Firefly's are rare.

I can't find any reference for a tank at Fort Drum, let alone a Firefly.. bet it is a M4/76 variant.

Heres the site for my Brigade I couldnt find any pictures of the HQ.

Im 90% sure it is a firefly. FT Drum used to have acouple of Armor divisions at it but someone was smart and made it the home of the light infantry :aok
The units from the 10Th Mountain were made famous in Italy, but that was the Mountain units I dont know about the Armor corps.
Ill get a pic sometime soon....been kinda busy the last 2 weeks doing In-processing and getting thrown around my battalion like a ball.

If it's to commemorate one of the units that used to be based at the Pine Barracks, it's most likely not a Firefly. Probably as Fencer said, anM4/76mm.

Can it be a new gv?

Checked the list of surviving Fireflys in Mark Haywards excellent book on the Firefly. Only one survivor in the US and it's just a turret mounted on a regular Sherman hull at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds.
Probably an M4/76

Yeah that;s what I thought too Guppy.

Now I want to take a drive up to Drum and get a photo. But I think I'll wait until the permafrost melts. :)

Its been a mild winter....I was colder on leave in MD :salute

Yeah, but the trees still grow sideways up there from the wind. I've been up there in the winter when you think your car is going to roll over waiting at a stop sign. No thank you. :)

Nah, local who doesn't want to deal with worse weather than he already lives with every day. We might be as cold and snowy, but we don't get the wind you guys do up there, I'm a good 50 miles inland. :)
