Dog gone since we got them I don&#8217;t have time for anything, they\nkeep us busy night and day. Thur we was on the range shooting the guns that our\nmounted on the M10 its a three inch gun each shell cost about $50.00 the length\nof the shell is about 34 inch, Boy you should here the noise it makes when it\ngoes off. We have to have cotton in our ears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the way\nhome from the range Lt wanted to drive my M10 the first corner he come to he\nwas going too fast and threw a track off its a heck of a job putting it back on\nWell<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>we finally got it fixed then the Sgt of my section wanted to drive so I let him the very next corner he did the same thing only worse he broke a sprocket threw the track off run in a ditch. So all day yesterday in a down pouring rain we was fixing it, now its in the shop and I am giving it a 250 miles check. I think from now on I&#8217;ll do the driving my self. I might have less trouble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s 3:00\nP.M.
