Pinky:
This looks good. There are a few mistakes though - I suppose it's too late to fix them. The most obvious is "Doris", which can't have served as Anzio - the M4A3(76mm) didn't enter service till September 1944 (although the French seem to have had some in service in August, before the US Army did).

Any idea what the black stars and the white and red striped stars were used for?
Pinky:
The black stars represent white stars which have been painted over, a fairly common feature of late-war US tanks.
The red stripes on the white star was a marking unique to 11th Armoured Division - the 'arm' of the star which was striped denoted the battalion.

Thank you very much.
