Default T 34

Guess you all got that email of the recovery of the T34 tnk that was buried in the bottom of a lake in Estonia, It had been captured ,painted & used by the Germans but when they went on the run they drove it into the lake. A young boy at the time saw tracke leading into the lake & bubbles coming up for days later. He recently told someone about it & they discovered it, after 62 years under the muck it startedafter a little tinkering. amazing. I can forward it to anyone that may want it also pictures.
