#1: Rhino and High Herman. Author: Jinx, Location: CanadaPosted: Sat Feb 18, 2006 7:12 pm ---- Just found this. Video of some 1950's experimental vehicles. The High Herman is a mine clearance device. The Rhino is.....well, you have to see for yourself.
Link works both in Firefox and IE, but as yet i have not found a way to save the video.

That was cool! Wish I could save it. Were those M46's?
Hi TW! Hi Folks!
M46? Close but no. That was a M47 with the storage box removed from the rear of the turret.
Interesting vehicles.

I thinking they removed the storage box. If not the first time the hit a live mine, that soft metal was ripped right of the mounting points.
I saw a lot of M47s setting around in Germany. Most of them were missing the storage box. A lot of the M60 units removed them and bolted them onto the bustle racks of their tanks. I don't know how water prouf they were, but you could put a pad lock on them to secure items.

I figured out how to save it. Problem is it's over 13MB in size, so too big to send via e-mail. The trick is you have to have QuickTime Pro, which i managed to "obtain" earlier this evening. If you have that, it's a snap to save the file.
