The Dragon-- Wrecked M4 Tank
Mitchell Jamieson
Accession Number: 88-193-HS
Original work: Watercolor
Original size: 15.25 by 22.25 inches

This burnt-out General Sherman tank was evidently hit by a German "88" [a high-velocity 88mm anti-aircraft artillery gun which was also used as an effective anti-tank weapon] and set afire. It was then partly covered with sand, probably by our bulldozers clearing an exit from the beach. A little further back from the water, a tank ditch extended for a considerable length. Part of the tank’s amphibious air-intake duct, which allowed the tank to be driven through shallow water from ship to shore, was broken off . To the right, a group of African-American troops, amphibious "duck" [DUKW – a type of wheeled land and water vehicle] drivers, gathered around a fire.
