Nice pics thanks! Some thing about the camo paint and the high visibility flashing yellow beacon just seem to contrast each other. I wonder if they can pull them off of active duty trucks?

Looking at the tanks being hauled,That just don't look right..........Barrels are pointed toward the cab of the trucks,That has to be an odd feeling when looking in the mirror

In travel lock and with the cover on. Not so bad. But know of at least one incident in the 80's where a tank on a railcar fired a round at the tank behind it - while the raillaod operation was ongoing.

That’s funny because tanks, cannons are not transported with any ordinance onboard. Be it over the road or by train… Heck there not parked at USNG bases with ordinance on board. I bet someone was docked a months pay and lost a stripe because of that mishap…
