Definately, just have a close look at the wrecks pulled from the Normandy seabed at Port-en-Bessin. The armour on Sherman tanks has been seriously thinned down by corrossion, thinner armour on a Priest has even been corroded away. Those carriers are best left at the bottom of the ocean for divers and fish to enjoy
