Suffice to say, after close examination, it's clear it's not an M4A3-Easy Eight. There were only so many close support 105mm shermans built anyhow, so it's nice to know this one is coming home. Anyone want to mount an expedition to Iraq to find WWII British and American Armor? Bet you there are some nice Matildas and armored cars over there. All the photo's of the rusted Brens and Vickers MGs planned for destruction makes me want to cry. -- -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Data Center Operations Group - - http://web.turner.com/data_center/ - ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Ryan Montieth Gill One CNN Center SE0813 E - - Internet Technologies -- Data Center Operations Manager - - Hours 11am - 7pm Mon - Fri (8Sdc, 10Sdc IT@3Ndc) - - Cellular: 404-545-6205 e-mail: Ryan.Gill@cnn.com - - Office: 404-588-6191 - ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Emergency Power-off != Door release! - ---------------------------------------------------------------- ===Mil-Veh is a member-supported mailing list=== To unsubscribe, send e-mail to: <mil-veh-off@mil-veh.org> To switch to the DIGEST mode, send e-mail to <mil-veh-digest@mil-veh.org> To reach a human, contact <ack@mil-veh.org>
