I want a tank, how cool would that be!

Some people are like slinkys, not much good for anything, yet would still bring a smile to your face if you pushed them down a flight of stairs.

That would be a M88 Hercules Recovery Vehicle. Very large, very useful. It also looks like an early model. If it is worth anything, it will be hauled down to Anniston for conversion into a more modern M88A2 Hercules, with new engine, tranny, etc. If it's not worth it, it will be hauled out to a range and pummeled with arty and high-velocity DU penetrators for the next 30 years until it's a pile of small steel pieces.

It's a M88A1.. The round boom is the giveaway. The M88A2 HERCULES has a square boom.
