The Stuart always struck me as a funky, almost toy-like looking tank. All those square angles and shot traps. It was good to see an actual living example, though.

I went to high school in the Panama Canal Zone and back then the U.S. Army would once a year come to school and give us rides in M113 APCs. Things could haul butt, fly over hills and land ever so soft.




Then these would land in the football field and take on passengers for a trip across the bay and up the Chagres River high speed low level.




They probabaly dont do stuff like that anymore.

Haha. I did actually have one of those as a kid until I broke the thermos throwing it as a demo charge.

Hey, they did have the GI Joe-Bob Hope Action Figure on museum display. I don't know if Kung-Fu grip was included.
