    Here's something a bit different for the tank fans out there.... and for those who like me hate FWVs... 'effing white vans' (and their inconsiderate drivers... for the most part)!

    Back to the planes tomorrow... promise!

    Similar to the Harbour Hopper tours here in Halifax.
    They're ex-US Army amphibs that were used in Vietnam.

    I saw a picture in the paper a year or so ago from Iraq, some militants in a pickup charged a truck screaming and shooting at this Abrams tank. They charged it but the tank just flat out ran them over. Perhaps would've helped to think that one out a little better.
