    That was really interesting. The tank was remarkably well preserved for being submerged for 60 years.

    Heres a link to another interesting WWII find-a P38 Lightning fighter that crashed landed in Greenland in 1942, was buried under 250' of ice, and flew again, 60 years later. This is pretty cool.

    WTF?? I just entered the same link, previewed it, and when it posted, it deleted some of the characters. I am by no means computer savvy, but why is this happening?

    Thats awesome!!! There was a show on History channel a couple weeks ago called Tank. I was watching similar activities. They were finding tanks and restoring them.

    The only way a 18 Ft prop will swing...
    I took Vid the day we started it up since the 50s when it was a parts hulk at the end of a runway in Honduras.
    I also have some kool Vid of a F-82 Nightfighter we found in Ohio..
