When we used to swim the carriers, we would place sandbags in the back to simulate the weight of either cargo or troops to keep the vehicle level. Not on the MRT mind you. There was already enough weight in all the spare parts and tooling.



With the M113, there was only one drill whilst swimming. If the vehicle was taking on water, the engine stopped, or a host of other warning signs, you abandoned ship.
