If this in fact a tank,it is tank named "Cobra".Cobra was disabled on the last day of fighting when it became bogged down in a shell hole.Or it could be a tank named "Cecelia" disabled by a Japanese tank round to its gun barrel.
The M4 Sherman, officially Medium Tank, M4, was the most widely used medium tank by the United States and Western Allies in World War II.
