Yeah, I guess this is history and education that stays much more in mind because it's much more exciting than a dull book 🙂
But some rust preventative would really be a wise addition to the Sherman sitting right next to the sea. Hopefully, if Corona does not lock all of us in our houses, I will have the chance to visit him once again in august 🙂

The shield for the bow machine gun already fell off the tank and even some of the chevrons on the tracks are coming loose because of rust. The whole thing needs a thorough restoration, but that's unlikely to happen because 1) the local council doesn't seem to know it's responsible for its maintenance or else they lose the right to display the tank (long story) and 2) restoration costs money.
