And Biden said you couldn't own a cannon.

Could be headed to Anniston Army Depot, but if brought over by/for US Govt then more likely going to the National Ground Intelligence Center's test/eval activity at Aberdeen Proving Ground. Could be, but that's in Maryland, what's it doing in La. My bet is that it's going to Hooks, Tx. They refurbish tanks, truck, etc for the Army and have the facilities to completely dismantle/restore it.

They came from Houston (probably off loaded from ship at Galveston), headed east on Interstate 10. Tanks rebuilt at Anniston AL, wheeled vehicles at Red River AD near Hooks. (I didn't sleep in a Holiday Inn last night, but did spend 5 yrs at Army Materiel Command ) BUT - they don't rebuild Russian POS tanks, so almost certainly headed to Aberdeen PG for intelligence gathering.

Shipping label on barrel addressed to Aberdeen Proving Grounds... You got better eyesight than me, I cant read the shipping label. Reckon it's going to Aberdeen.

I would have thought that we already a couple of these to look at since they are not that new. But, maybe they got a deal on it. The Ukraine army probably sold it to us for crazy money.

Why offload in Texas if Maryland is the final destination ?

It's probably stolen and sold on the grey market, just like the Ukes stole a HIMARS from the AFU and sold it to Russia. Zelensky will probably be over here next week blowing Hunter, begging for that tank back.

But, what the heck: maybe that's where the ship was headed.

I bet not one person put a Geiger counter to it. Deleted uranium? So undetectable.
