AIX-EN-PROVENCE
Citizens of Aix-en-Provence cheer an M-10 tank destroyer of the 601st TD Battalion
as the city celebrates its liberation at the Place de la Rotunde. The jeep to the right is from the 163rd Signal Co. The M-10, with a 3-inch (76.2 mm) gun, was powered by twin GM six-cylinder, 375 hp diesel engines. Based on the Sherman, nearly 5,000 M-10s were built in 1942.
