Summary: Another Zaloga Hit, Qualified
Comment: Well detailed developmental history and World War Two deployment as expected of Zaloga's caliber of work. A tad disappointed that of 37 pages with data, including four with color plates commentary, only two pages and two color plate comments covered the Korean War; a little over two pages and two color plate comments cover post-war exports. The 76mm served barely over one year in World War Two, but fought all three years of the Korean War; that deserves more detailed coverage. I also would have appreciated more details on the disposition of post-WWII U.S.Army occupation forces, such as when which units traded in their older Shermans for newer tanks. Also given short shrift were flamethrower mountings, and while Zaloga goes into some detail on the 17-pounder gun, there's almost no mention of 105mm howitzer tanks the 76mm habitually served with. Overall a very informative work on the development and early deployment of the 76mm gun Sherman.
