Due to the great demand for M36 tank destroyers a small number of M36B1s were created by mating a M36 turret to a M4A3 tank hull.This is is a rear view, note the counter weight on the turret, typical of an M36.This example is of the 11th Armored Division of Patton's Third Army as it passes GIs of the 26th Division near Langenselbd, Germany March 30, 1945.
