Thank you Mike they are some great pictures even for people who don't build that era or type of vehicle from a weathering point of view.

My god that's a lot of scrap! Any idea how many vehicles are out there? Excellent photos of what may some day soon be gone. Mike, you wouldn't by any chance have had an opportunity to get any more shots of that BMR-1 at Bagram?

Great, great images!
It's great how wrecks can show details that can't be seen on complete vehicles.
Would you have a clear pic of a T-62 showing the drive sprocket unmounted?
cheers,
Marc
