Like the tilte says, I need help locating some pictures on the computer. I know this has been brought up several times and I'm sorry for bringing it uo again.
Bob(burik) has helped me already, but I was wondering if any one else can provide some more help.
I am looking for some pictures of M1A1 Abrams from Alpha Co., Task Force 1-64, 3rd ID.
I have the Echelon sheet that has 2nd PLT vehicles and a couple of tracks from the other platoons. I want to do A11 and anything will help. If you can find pictures of A13 or A14, that would help also.
Gino, can you help out here since you where with the 3rd during OIF.
Thanks in advance!

Cant really help you look on line (not very good at it)but I’ll check my reference pictures when I get a chance and see if I have any.
I know I saved some tank pictures from the division I found while looking up pictures of the Bradleys.
I don’t know if any of them are from that company or not but if they are I’ll send them to you. Just give me a day or 2 to check.

Pete:
I sent some pics of A13 and A14 to your NG address. Both of these tanks are of interest I believe. One is ALL THE WAY TO BAGHDAD and is on page 12 of the book in a broken down state (I think would be very cool to model using the new DML kit). A13 is ANOTHER EPISODE and is on page 17 of the book. Of note this tank had a plow to start with but by Najaf it did not have the plow anymore. The TC of A13 was KIA in the first thunder run into Baghdad, which is detailed in the book Thunder Run. By then it had sustained a well dented right front fender, and a dented jerrycan rack on the right side. I wonder if it was from a collision with another tank? I saw such a collision on video during one of the thunder runs. The turrets actually got hooked up via a turned turret and an extended bustle rack.

Pete,
Would like to help you, but I found the same pics Bob sent you in my files as well.

Thanks Gino for for the try and thanks Bob for the email. Know all I have to do is decide which one to go with.
