I did crawl down into it, man, that was super tight. Subs have nothing on tanks for claustrophobia.

Speaking of Texas, one of the vehicles on display was a M728 combat engineer tank based on a M60 Patton chassis. A vehicle that will probably always be far more famous (or infamous) for rooting out the Branch Davidians at Waco, Texas than rooting out the Viet Cong in Vietnam. :O:

Thanks for verifying. I guess that just leaves this sad looking relic with four flat tires as my remaining mystery vehicle. I'm pretty sure it's of Soviet manufacture.

Bolshevik Recce Death Machine! :up:

That Sherman is an M4A1 apparently, I've gotten so used to the slab sides of the A2s and A3s that I'd forgotten how much the A1s curved at the top.
