Responsibility details are not available.
These Star Decals decals belong to the Sherman Crab mine-clearing tank with the British 79th Armoured Division. According to the name the vehicle is based on the Sherman Mk V version. The sheet is intended for modelers who build this unmistakable machine in 1:35 size.
The Crab carried arms with a rotating drum in front of the hull, on which chains were hung. The drum spun up and the chains beat into the ground so hard that mines in the path of the tank were set off or thrown clear, so a passable lane was left behind the vehicle. The British 79th Armoured Division brought together exactly such purpose-converted vehicles, and its own insignia became one of the best recognizable unit emblems of the Second World War. With one sheet a modeler thus gets not only tactical signs but also the key to placing the vehicle in an order of battle. British hardware carried these emblems most often on the fenders and on the front plate of the hull, so during the build you need to reckon with where they will be visible once it is finished.
The mine-clearing version has a surface crowded with fittings and brackets, so plan out in advance where each design will fit without a fold. On the vertical areas near the arms it helps to secure a design with a thin coat of varnish once dry, so that it is not rubbed off during further assembly.
