MC: Tanks using Snorkels

[alaric99x]

I was stationed on the Rhine, at Karlsruhe and then Mannheim, in the US Army in the 1980's. Soviet snorkeling tanks were included in our OPFOR (opposing forces) briefings. They told us that all the rivers in West Germany had been studied to determine where such tanks could actually cross. After the self-proclaimed experts eliminated steep banks, soft bottoms, deep water and fast currents, etc., there were very few places left where such tanks could safely cross.
