I took these pics yesterday as I was stuck on I24-E coming home from work yesterday. Seeing these tanks in Nashville was a strange thing for me. Thoughts of the different wars going on went through my head. Couldn't figure out where these tanks were heading. I told my mom about the tanks this morning when I called her. She told me of the story when her and my dad, after they first were married, drove all the way from Wilmington to Alabama behind a tank with the big old gun pointing at them the whole way. She laughed about it as she was telling me but said it was the longest trip of her life. The year was 1944.
