Remembrance-shermantank for Polish liberation replaced at Tielt!

In Tielt is the sherman that is placed for the liberation-remembrance, replaced on another location; in fact on the other side of the square.
it had to take place, to build new infrastructure on the side where the tank stands previously.
The official inauguration will take place on 11th November. I hope that the correct markings will be placed to that date;
i see that the tank is refubrished with a new layer of paint (since my last visit);
also is the new place historical correct, because on the new place- will the barrel from the sherman point to Ruiselede (’petit chambois’ as named by Polish veterans), the way the black devils followed—> Tielt-Ruiselede. On his old place; he pointed the other side..

Apologize for the bad quality of the clip, but at this moment i do not find a better one..
Kind regards, Pieter.
