Material about Soviet Lend-Lease tanks? Books, reports, etc. on Soviet usage of Western allied tanks. Specifically how the Soviets used them, opinions of them, combat involving them, etc.

There is plenty more to say on the topic, but I answered a similar question several years ago: https://np.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/5yyow3/how_did_lend_lease_armor_perform_in_soviet_service/

In addition to /u/TankArchives' post, which draws on some great primary-source work, I would recommend Dmitry Loza's memoir Commanding the Red Army's Sherman Tanks. It contains a couple of just-so stories of which I somewhat doubt the veracity (using Katyusha rocket artillery to clear infantry from friendly tanks by firing directly on said friendly tanks? Yeah, I have questions, Dima) but it's a great memoir and it gives some professional insights into tank/infantry cooperation (including tank desant which is a little hard to find writings on), tank tactics at the battalion level and lower, and also Loza's own experience of war. It's a quick read and well worth your time; James Gebhardt is a good translator.
