Tank Company HQ 1x CinC M4 or M4A1 Sherman, 1x 2iC M4 or M4A1 Sherman
Tank Platoon 1x Command M4 or M4A1 Sherman, 2x M4 or M4A1 Sherman
Tank Platoon 1x Command M4 or M4A1 Sherman, 2x M4 or M4A1 Sherman
Tank Platoon 1x Command M4 or M4A1 Sherman, 2x M4 or M4A1 Sherman
Armoured Rifle Platoon 1x Command Rifle, 5x Rifle, 2x M1919 LMG, 1x M2 60mm Mortar, 1x M3 37mm gun, 2x M3 half-tracks with .50 cal AA MG, 3x M3 half-tracks with AA MG) Bazookas 3x Bazooka
I think all Confident Trained, so might be too few squishy models. The tank platoons should be numerous enough that they can move around for side shots. The infantry platoon is beefy enough that it should be able to sit in some cover and dare badguys to get close. Could replace the 37mm gun with a bazooka, but thought the range was nice.

.50 cal bazookas? or .50 cal machine guns? lol either way. yeah the infantry may be squishy, but they do seem to have alot of supressing fire and good range

Infantry really aren't squishy in this game.
Even out in the open, they get a 3+ save.
If you get them in a building, or fox holes, and you don't move/shoot them, the enemy will barely be able to hit them (would need 5+), then you get your 3+ save, then the enemy has to make a firepower test to actually kill one (most guns that would be shooting at infantry are 5+ or 6). They are, rightly so, VERY hard to kill off.
Not sure where you see .50 Bazookas; their halftracks have some .50 AA MG (which are super nice, btw). They have 3 bazookas, which makes them a pretty credible threat to tanks within 10", and I believe makes them pretty beefy vs. tanks in assault. They have all the MGs on the halftracks (though those might get sent to the rear so as not to die too easy and force the platoon to crack), but the mortar, LMGs and lots of Rifle fire will make getting near them pretty scary for infantry, too.
This list has no artillery, and no air defense. I really don't know how this would work.
