M1A1 Abrams
The mount of the US Army. A fearsome behemoth. This vehicle and many like it formed the spearhead of the armoured drives in the stunning capture of Baghdad. Two amazing thunder runs later, the brutal Iraqi regime fell, sparing the city from a bloodbath. If there had been a siege and a block to block war in the city streets, the city would have been razed and the casualty toll to the civilians and combatants would have been horrendous.
The thunder runs were a brilliant stroke of improvision by the ground commanders.
This is a tribute to the brave fighting men in Iraq.

welcome to a mind that dares to wonder why

hi, shall just reply you on your latest posts intead of digging up the old post.
I'm extremely busy with marking, setting papers, and dealing with NPCC logistics and admin...and a lot other miscellaneous nitty-gritty things.
Small scale works can be very good too..
Sin, may I know what you teach? Yes, it seems that my friends who are teachers are preoccupied with marking, setting papers too.
Merv, tanks are your friends! Reach out there and hug a tank, man!
Failing that, hug a garbage truck as a substitute! They have the mass! Heehee.
