It appears to have a sheet metal fitting in place of its mantlet. It is believed that this Priest was acquired from the Commes collection (source: T. Royall) where it was previously on display. It was therefore one of three recovered from an LCT (Landing Craft Tank) on the sea-bed, three miles off Port-en-Bessin, in 1982. They had lain there since the LCT had been sunk on D-Day, 6 June 1944. The other M7s went to Saumur and the artillery regiment at Valbonne.
