The Cellar - View Single Post - January 25, 2007: Old tank found, pulled out of the muck

Well, at first blush, I'd say it was a German tank driven into a bog during WWII, and it was preserved by the anaerobic nature of bogs. But then I get to looking at the turret, and notice there's not lid to the crew port, and what appears to be faded graffiti written on the rest of the turret. Now I'm just wondering if it wasn't some monument somewhere that got prank dumped into the bog...
