Hi Everyone

When where the lighting holes done on the M26 Pershing drive sprockets and how many holes. Was it when it first went to war in WW2 or just before the Korean war.

Is there any after market sprockets with the holes.

I'm trying to finish an old scratch build of mine of the T84 8" Howitzer Motor Carriage. I have about 5 pictures and it is hard to tell on the dark shadows and angle of the picture. One of the picture you can almost see them.

Thank you for any help,

Ralph

It's written in Italian but the images should be of use.
