A WWII DUKW (most fittingly dubbed "Duck"). I've seen one of those on land near the Imperial War Museum when I spent a week in London in October 2007.
I'm glad everyone got out safely.
It saddens me because the "Duck" was one of my favourite WWII allied vehicles.
Oh, excuse me. The "Duck" was American, so it was a
favorite of mine
