★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Served in the 11th Armored Division, 41st Tank Battalion, Company B of the 11th Armored Division. The tank, under command of Staff Sgt. Wallace Alexander, was put out of action near Renaumont, a few kilometres west of Bastogne, on December 30 1944. The tank, called ’Barracuda’ by it’s crew, was separated from it’s unit, together with another tank under command by Captain Robert L. Ameno. Both Shermans wandered north of Bastogne towards Renuamont. This was the HQ of Colonel Otto Ernst Remer, ‘Kommandeurr’ of Hitler his elite brigade Führer Begleit. ’Barracuda’ got stuck in a snow covered pond and some German grenades put it out of action. On the portside of the tank, you’ll find a hole where a German shell went through.
