Tanktober competition Day 3 presents this very characterful beast (see here).
Just to be clear on scoring:
1 point for correct identification of the vehicle
1 point for doing so first
1 point for identifying the location
You can go back and fill out any missed days at any time, so late-commers can catch up easily.

ReplyDeleteI'd seen those before, and I recognize the gun loadout . . . but I didn't know the designation before.
ReplyDeleteIt's the Ontos in the Marine Corps Museum at Quantico VA. It's on the 1st floor on the left as you leave the entry way.
ReplyDeleteSemper Fi !
