It would have been unhistorical for Spielberg to have shown Sherman tanks in action in the film. Sorry. Re: Shermans on Omaha Beach in SPR

Until she says stop, get out, that's not his writing and off we go on a chase to the death. Great colour and great fun, and a perfect start to a black comedy. Tango by Patrice Leconte
