Ready for Battle - more US armour

Having taken them out of the box, dusted them down, reattached the broken parts and finished off the paint scheme, the latest box of US tanks is ready to take to the field.  The group consists of five Stuarts/Honeys, I believe by Matchbox, and two Airfix Lee tanks:

US Armour

I have looked through US armour and fixed the odd loose wheel and machine gun and this is what I found:

A group of 76mm and 75mm armed Shermans:
Three Chafees:
Seven half-tracks:
Two M7 SP guns:
Three 155mm SP guns:
Altogether, as useful force:
I am sure there are some Stuart light tanks too somewhee?

Opening More Boxes - US Armour

A rummage through the containers turned up three boxes of US tanks, half-tracks and SP guns.  I know there should be more as I am sure there are some General Lee tanks and possibly a few others. maybe they will turn up as I dig deeper.

There is one box of M4 Shermans:
A box of M-24 Chaffees, a tank destroyer and some half-tracks:
And a box of SP guns and more half tracks:
Most are in good order. A few bits have dropped off ans some of the soft plastic tracks had perished and need attention.

Altogether a nice little armoured force and probably more than enough for the table top.
