Default Churchill found in Iraq!

What do you think of this:




More pictures of captured/found vehicles (including M36 Tank Destroyer, M20 Armored car, M24 Chaffees etc. etc.) can be found over here:

I hope some vehicles will find their way to a proper museum.

Where is the picture of the M20 Armored car?

Some more interesting reading:
- Sherman Encyclopedia > Iran / Iraq
- "Restored tank recaptures glory"
