That M60A1 was the first tank in Kuwait City during Desert Storm IIRC.

Hopefully she'll be displayed like the others in the future.

Interesting - its looks like one of the pre-production versions of the Asad Babyl - there were probably only three of these made...

Type 69-IIB

This one at Quantico seems to be in better condition, not the same one?

I seriously doubt they are the same tank.

I forwarded your photo of the M60A1 to 'an informed source' on USMC tanks and this was his response:

She is Geneses II, C company's HQ tank commanded by Capt Ed Dunlap, 3rd Tank Battalion, pulled from the MPF at Diego Garcia, 1990. I know her personally and smoked many a cigar with Ed on her back deck during Desert Shield & Storm

Thought you'd be interested.
Regards
Don

Cool, Don! Thanks for the info!

A couple of more pics of the T-72 for those interested:

Chris, would you mind if I added these pictures to the Quantico entry on PreservedTanks.com, like I did with SuperTsar's photos? As part of the credit I'll add a link with each photo to toadmanstankpictures.com.

Hi Trevor,

Thanks - I'll get to work!

Done, photo's added:

Quantico

I've also added the information provided by Don, Jim and Joe so, guys, let me know if I've got any of it wrong. I try to record everything I can about tanks in the database. I also did some extra research and found out about Tamiya's model of Genesis II, and added a picture of the box art. I'm planning to do a bit more on this collection soon (particularly those now on display inside) - I'll post here when it's done.
