Sickening series of photos for that tank crew. Slow, and certain.

I'm so blonde, I stopped by this headline thinking it was an economics thread..... I never was blonde, and I'm mostly grey now. But I thought that, too.

Cool red x cartoon - it takes up as much bandwidth as one of the photos your browser doesn't get. Try refreshing, or go to the source link, or the other link provided.

Hull down over (under?) watch position.
Still, at least someone had the foresight to attach towing cables while it was still easy to do so.

Please be careful with those drive through tank cleaners.

Who do you call to pull a tank out of the mud? And what do THEY drive?

That's going to be a tough pull to get that thing out of there. Wonder how many recovery vehicles it took to get it out? Assuming they got to it before it went completely under.

I'm thinking an M-88 would be the vehicle of choice - not sure if an M1 can tow another M1, being as they're crewed by tankers.

I'll bet it required at least 3 M88s. I had a friend who got an M-1 stuck up to the turrent and that needed 3 M88s .... just watch out for those cables!

Was it an M88 that took down the statue in Baghdad 2003?
