LF 1/35 US tankers in summer uniform

Hey guys. I'm getting everything together to build a 4th Armored M4A1 Sherman. I've found some RHPS Models T48 working tracks and Verlinden's M4 Sherman set with the Culin device. I want to put a crew with it. I need them in summer dress because I want to build it during Third Army's drive through the south of France.

Any ideas on where I can find some?
 
Here's some http://www.squadron.com/ItemDetails.asp?item=NM35082
Hope that helps, still looking for another set I saw somewhere.
Another possibility.

Thanks Mike. I never thought to go to Squadron. I went through the entire Colorado Miniatures website! :bang head

Too bad MiniArt's new sets aren't out yet.
 
Ultra Cast is good also.

Except right now we have a postal strike and the loyal opposition are being butt heads in the legislation for back to work.

Hey Gator
I assume you meant north western France for the Third Army? Southern France was Sixth Army domain.
Irrespective of it being summer, there is plenty of photo evidence of 4AD tankers wearing the winter combat jacket and coveralls. I think if you can get a tanker wearing the HBT one piece coveralls (which seem ubiquitously summer garb) and the Rawlings football style helmets you can use them adequately.
Look forward to seeing your progress here. I know a little about the 4AD and their campaign, so please ask if needing any assistance.
Cheers

Yes Brad, that's what I meant. I'm no armor guy at all, so I don't know all the areas of operation or stuff like that.
