Looks like a nice dive spot. I don’t know who heads it up but there have been a lot of M60 tanks sunk to support the growth of reefs. The day I read about M1s hitting the seafloor I will feel old.
We’ve got an old 60A3 sitting near the council house in Cherokee. No one I’ve asked has the slightest idea why it’s sitting there. I suspect someone was wanting to set it up as part of a memorial. They’ve got an 105 howitzer near the council house for that purpose, and I suspect the A3 was going to be part of it. Getting that “51 tons of homogeneous steel” in motion to put it somewhere else is going to be a serious production when they do decide to do something with it.

Where is that thing sitting? To short stop the clownish retort “underwater,” I’m looking for the geographic location.
Dunno, but there’s a LOT of pics of it on the internet. Maybe as an artificial reef off Florida?
How’d it get there?
