Hello from Atlanta GA 30306. Thanks to Bruce B. in Berkeley CA and all who
worked on posting the Russian Tank photos! Question on condition of metal
surfaces-- Is corrosion/rust present on all or some surfaces? Was the
vehicle found in fresh water? I recall the recent Russian/German tank that
was plucked from a bog, and the metal looked great in the photos. Will
these recently extricated armour vehicles require special anti-rust
treatments?? Thanks!

Regards,
