There’s no way to know when any of the tanks were manufactured. Old Phylliss' cast, rounded upper hull marks it plainly as a M4A1, but it could’ve been built anytime between 1941 and 1945. Phylliss could have been part of Torch and see the action at Kasserine, or could be a fairly new replacement since D Day. It is likely and probable old Phillyss was in service early on & eventually upgraded with the T23 turret, having been shot out from under several crews & handed down to the next five in line. If this wasn’t so close to the end of the war it’s likely old Phillis’s would have been rehabilitated and resurrected yet again.
