Tank itself looks clean, well cared for. Great equipment, hurts to see so many slowly rusting away. Nice shot, good treatment.

Thanks for sharing.

Was happy to see this, I always love seeing equipment that made history preserved and taken care of. I bet this VFW post is proud to have it. They'll take care of it too. Great Job on your photos.

Thanks for the trip down memory Lane. Worked on many of the A2's in Germany. They were the mainstay of the Cold War.

Also missing the 50 Cal. at the t.c. hatch. Love the pix of the drive sprocket. Many a time I have replaced track using a rope and the drive sprocket.
