It is believed the turret of the tank was in combat because of damage that can be seen on it. The turret and hull were separate components from two different tanks that were put together after a war.

Easy 8s were used during WWII, the Korean War and the Arab-Israeli conflicts.

The M4A3 model was the first to be factory-produced with the horizontal volute spring suspension (HVSS) system with wider tracks to distribute weight, beginning in August 1944.

With the smooth ride of the HVSS, it gained the nickname "Easy Eight" from its experimental "E8" designation.
