As a disabled U.S. Army Abrams mechanic.. I really enjoy watching you guys do your rebuild work. I have to admit to some jealousy over the fact that you all get to do this work, and I can not. Working on Military equipment was something I loved more than anything. Good job on the project so far.

Amazing to think that you lot have done this massive job, in a shed down by the river with two spanners, an adjustable wrench and a big hammer. When it was originally built they had hundreds of hands, in a massive factory full of hoists and torches and all well supervised by some suites and clipboards. Well done, cheers.
