The M1 that was destroyed featured on the Tv coverage of the jaunt down highway 8. Looked like an engine overheat, decided not to recover the vehicle and the crew were seen to extract in good order having posted a grenade back into the hatch.
Also later BBC showed the Iraqi;s dancing on the turret of a different knocked out tank. someone should point out to them that it was a T-72 turret and was therefor one of their own tanks
