andym Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 I watched "Pentagon Wars" last night on DVD. The opening titles are set over film of numbers of tanks doing things they shouldn't, with ensuing interesting results! Andy Quote

steveo578 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 http://fotki.yandex.ru/users/vatryk/...366447?page=45 One of those non .whatever pictures, so I can't copy it. 2nd computer I've tried to access the fotki site tonight both times got no further than a frozen sceen, probably due to the micky mouse quality of both the site itself and the idiots who overload their vanity photo sites. If a site blocks photo download the simplest answer is prtsc and copy to paint or photoshop. Steve Quote
Jesse Browning Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 I wonder if this one is still there. It looks like they are covering it up. Jesse http://www.g503.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=178046 Quote
eddy8men Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 i reckon there's a fair chance that sherman? is still under the road, anyone know any italians :cool2: eddy Quote
steveo578 Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 (edited) In the late 1990s there was a StuG M42 105mm (if I recall correctly) recovered from a road in downtown Rimini, so it's poosble that wrecks are still under the italian road system but considering how high the Sherman in the photo is lying I would think it would recovered- even if it was cut up as was the T34 that fell into an entrance to an underground tunnel in Berlin. It is almost certainly a Sherman as opposed to anything else note the soldier gazing intently at where the hull floor access hatch would be - a certainly necessary examination to see if anyone or any remains were in the tank. The only other three piece differential AFVs that could in the hole would be M7, Sexton or M3 Grant -none of which had floor access hatches. There is a lot of recovery stuff available to engineers for the recovery. Steve Edited January 28, 2011 by steveo578 addition Quote
steveo578 Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 (edited) I wonder if that photo isn't an early shot of the T34 at Kibbutz Dan. Edited February 12, 2011 by steveo578 posting is being a bit jittery Quote

fesm_ndt Posted November 26, 2011 Author Posted November 26, 2011 Found a new one to add to the list from a very interesting intelligence report [ATTACH=CONFIG]53819[/ATTACH] Quote
fesm_ndt Posted November 26, 2011 Author Posted November 26, 2011 Two in the same day....... I am either reading the right books or I am in serious troubles Mind you the German operating manual are more interesting to look at as it appears treating your tank like semi naked women was an acceptable training techinique [ATTACH=CONFIG]53821[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]53822[/ATTACH] Quote
