Good article Jim. Where did you find it. I know there has been a lot of discussion or should a say heated arguments about the Abrams and how it feared in Iraq.

interesting stuff, but Im interested to know how often they were used and how useful in general day to day operations and such. as most news in Iraq seems to be foot patrols and choppers, what is the main job of tanks after the heavy fighting is over?
