When asked why he had decorated his tank in such a way, Captain James Blunt's simple answer was... It's beautiful... It's beautiful... It's beautiful, it's true.

Tests of the new Hangar fire sprinklers revealed an "R" missing out of the original Specification and the new hangar sprinkles system was a dismal failure.

"Great idea Smithers - we can cancel the order for the bridging equipment now!"

There wasn't any need for "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" with Les Boys from 'F' Troop.

(for the more sophisticated ppruners)

With the secret base at La Grande Jatte closing, Col. Seurat of the French Army revealed how they'd kept the tanks hidden for 50 years.

In an effort to be more environmentally friendly the Top Gear production team descide that after their next 'Lets run a tank over a Caravan / Morris Minor / Lada ' stunt there will be more of the victim left

or

Latest Audi advert promoting the benefits of the 10 in car air bag system is met with typical overkill by Bae when asked to quote for the next tank crew survivability in combat modifications

or

A little too late for Christmas Lego bring out the new Abrams M1-A1 made up with the little colourfull squares

or (finally thank god for tonight

In an effort to reduce the rising costs it is descided to let the Russian team build the fuctioning part and NASA add on all the rough terrain survivablity outer shell for the joint mission to mars Rover
