- SFC_Jeff_ButtonDoug should be plenty familiar with these shots. I'm rather surprised by the amount of rust.

Meaning the hatch was already open and Bob supervised
This is the same M60A2 I posted pics of before:
It was just recently acquired by the museum from "behind the fence." Still no idea what those heavy duty lugs are on the front hull, but I suspect it was used for some time as a test vehicle, dead weight or something until it sat unused for quite a while...

Question for Doug about the following photo titled M60A2TCsightsm.jpg.
The photo has a compoment that measures distance in meters .
Now (I don't mean to cause any offence here - apologies if I do - not intended) but why the metric units ?
As far as I know the U.S. Armed forces of the 60s , 70s used the imperial system of measurement. Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong !
Did the U.S. Armed Forces use the metric system way before U.S. public use of the metric system ?
