It's cool, but seems like a rare bird for the miniature tabletop.

It would be useful in Normandy Boccage scenarios.

Also useful for clearing beach obstacles from Anzio to Normandy, and a few used in the Pacific.

Bulldozer attachments always handy. Useful kit.

It's cool, but seems like a rare bird for the miniature tabletop. IIRC, there was one 'dozer per platoon of 3 hitting the beach on D-day (carried in LCTs).

not that rare a variant, also used by the british & french armies. we sell loads of add on M1 dozer kits in both 1/72 & 1/56th, always useful.

I seem to remember, though can not find the reference, that on occasion a dozer tank was used to lead a column much like they did with a Jumbo. But lacking a source admit may be apocryphal.
