If anyone can answer this without crucifying me, can I get a quick and dirty as to what fuel Shermans used? I had thought there were various gasoline engines, but it looks like there were diesel engines as well? What would be most typical in US service? If there were diesel engined M4s were they more a lend lease thing or did they see significant US service?
