Heartland:

Certainly the Sherman was not very appreciated by Soviet crews... I think their own T-34 could deal with the German tanks much better than any Western-Allies' tank they sent. What the Russians really appreciated were planes, lorries and jeeps, along with food rations and hand guns, which we know were very good.

Cool posters, Kai! Very impressive!
