Mid-July 1944, between the villages of Giberville and Cuverville east of Caen, a Sherman Firefly VC 148th RAC / 33rd Armored Brigade captured by s.Pz.Abt. 503.

In the Western Desert both the Germans and the British commonwealth used quite a few captured tanks. This is the first example I've seen of the use of a captured tank in Normandy though. They picked a good tank though, I would call the British Firefly one of the best Sherman variants.
