Hi all,
I need help on the position of loader. Is he sitting or standing on a folding seat or what? Is there any interior photos to figure it? Thanks and best regards

He is standing on his seat. The loaders seat hung off the turret side. It was spring loaded and would flip up if not sat on or stood on. It was not adjustable. It was also removable to give the loader more room to work. I crewed M48A5s and that part of the vehicle didn't change.
