Sorry for the second post but I also remember watching interviews of American veterans who absolutely dreaded getting into the Shermans because they would blow up upon getting hit.
There is a reason why the Germans named them " cigars boxes " or something of that nature.
unlike the Americans not one Soviet soldier disliked or said anything bad about the T-34
