    Excellent mate. Really gives us civvies an insight into what type of views a soldier sees on a daily basis. But what's happened to the tracks on that tank?

    Cheers matey.

    If you mean the American M1 all I can tell you about it is:

    I was just South of Al Zubayah late March. It was hit my a Missile from a USMC Cobra Gunship I assume a Hellfire and it was being guarded by a couple of American marines with a Humvee. They were waiting for it to be recovered back to Kuwait and the rumour then back to the states to be examined by the manufactuers. Never thought about the tracks aspect. The Marines said all the crew got out alive with minor injuries although one had lost an eye.

    Looking at the pic I would say they had already taken everything from the Tank that wasn't welded down. The secondary Armament has gone too. We quickly learnt where the old saying of 'Theiving Arab' comes from :)
