American Tanks-November 2024
Nov 21, 2024

  Northwest of the airstrip, two sturdy-looking US tanks rust in union on a grassy patch of land near a dirt track. Both are LVTs – Landing Vehicle Tractors – that were used to carry US Marines from ship to shore when the US invasion forces landed on Japanese-controlled Peleliu in September 1944. One tank is equipped with a 75mm gun.
