    M1's don't float

    I was in Kitzingen. I remember all the lovely training areas mentioned. Miss it now. Hated it then. I actually got an M1 airborn once. Maybe 2 inches, but there was daylight.

    M1's don't float

    We were not using scouts because our LT. was showing off the M1. Turned into a turkey shoot for the Germans. I did get to drive the Leopard later that week. Kind of similar to M60 but more fwd speeds. We were in Wilflecken if I remember correctly. Cleaning these things was great fun...

    M1's don't float

    Yes, the could not recover until AM. If I remember we had to strap 2 tanks together for that one. No M88 was getting that one out. We were up against a platoon of Leopard 1's in the woodline. Miles gear going off all night. That was the only time we got whipped by the Leo 1's.

    M1's don't float

    A little action photo from 1988 3rd ID 3-63 Armor. Good thing he had the driver's hatch closed. We were in formation at night and the entire platoon got stuck in formation. This guy found a bomb crater. That is not the standard muzzle plug.
