In this episode of The Two Tankers and A Cat Podcast we talk about the grandfather of the M4 Sherman. The T5 Medium tank was a prototype that led to the M3 Lee and then the M4 Sherman medium tanks. The only T5 Medium tank in existence today is located at Fort Benning, Georgia with The U.S. Army Armor and Cavalry Collection. You guessed it, your hosts got to see this unique tank during an open house in November 2018! During the second half of this episode, we talk about the Battle of Medina Ridge during the Gulf War in 1991. This battle is said to have been one of the largest battles during the Gulf War with Iraq. Please visit our new website at www.twotankersandcat.com Until the next episode, happy tanking and have a nice day!

The Medium Tank M3/ Grant/ Lee was the first American medium tank to carry a 75mm gun, and played a significant part in the fighting in North Africa in 1942, but it was always seen as a interim design as its main gun was carried in the right of the hull, and it had been rushed into production to fill a gap before the arrival of the Medium Tank M4 Sherman.
