Sherman's from Polish 2nd Armoured Division
Tanks in the 2nd Armoured Division were all named, the names being painted in the squadron colours. The turret also had a diamond, triangle, square or circle painted to show squadron number. Stencilled versions of the regimental badges featured on the tank turrets; either separately or inside the squadron signs: a scorpion for the 4th Regiment, a lion for the 6th Regiment and two palm trees and a crescent moon for the Carpathian Lancers. The exception to this were the Krechowiecki Lancers who used a horse head symbol. Some of the name were replicated and the version was indicated by a Roman numeral so, for example, there was a Rekord I, Rekord II and a Rekord III.
