I bet Gunney Ermey's about to crawl out of his grave right now.

at the 1:17 mark the camera pans up to the cathedral spires.
I've stood in pretty much that exact same place, several times over the years.

Whoever was driving the car through the gunfire was equal parts brave and stupid.

Just a quick heads-up for anyone interested- another issue of the Tank Encyclopedia Magazine has been released. Interesting reading and the price is right ;-)

Watch them loading ammo - those Shillelagh rounds look massive.

Always loved the look of the Sheridan - too bad it didn't work out well. Tamiya has a 1/16 RC model - looks excellent - about 15K Canadian.
