Sorry but I don't know any more than what you see here... http://www.dusky.sk/halbot/?id=2863 Also, if those cables had snapped pulling this out I guarantee it would have made headlines. No pun intended... for every hour in front of the computer you should have 3 hours outside | ||

Is that a T34 with German markings? I think the mistake a lot of us make is thinking the state-appointed shrink is our friend. - Jack Handey 03C1033 | |||

I wonder where the hull and coaxial MGs ended up as they appear to have been removed... | |||

The Germans captured a lot of russian armor remarked it & used it. That is an awsome find! Doug Humbarger NRA Life member Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club 72'73. Yankee Station Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo. | |||

That tank looks awfully pristine to have been submerged for what, 60 years? Were the Germans using WD40 or Rustoleum? | |||

You know that digging up battlefields and such is a cottage industry in the former USSR and here in the US.Serpents Wall is a cool site.Finding a tank in what looks to be very good condition would be the find of a lifetime.

craigster, I agree. Wonder if this thing got a joyride from a museum a month before it was found?. No moss, apparently nothing growing out the muzzle, no apparent rust.

Maybe, or after I thought about it, modern day WWII "reenactors" who got in over their heads, literaly. | |||

Seeing that just reminds me of the tragic nature of the second world war. Just think of the fact that it was an "enemy" tank coverted into use by an army that was once feared for their own tanks. And how well it was preserved! Mud can do that suprisingly. I don't know why, but seeing that really make me think. Human history is a complicated business. And craigster... I am also behind the redwood curtain in california. Arcata, Humboldt county.... where abouts are you, it would be great to talk to another military surplus collector in the area. Those swept in pacivity, not possessing of might, become history's lessons on which one is right. | |||
