You go, girls!
[IsraelTimes] Channel 12 interviews soldiers from all-woman company within mixed-gender battalion who say there was no time for fear or hesitation, battled Death Eaters for 17 hours

When a group of young Israeli women were woken up at 6:30 a.m. on October 7, they had no idea they would be making history as the first female armored crews in Israel, and perhaps the world, to participate in active battle. In an interview with Channel 12 this week, the combat soldiers spoke of thundering along main roads to get to some of the 20 southern Israeli communities that came under massive assault that morning, running down terrorists, and securing breaches on the border with the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip.

#15  Ah, female crews to beat Hamas. The only better thing would be if they coated the tank treads with bacon grease beforehand...but maybe, being Jews, they can't do that. Maybe they have some Gentile friends?

#14  Actually, N M BS, it's OK that way. You just use that side for going backwards.

#13  A labor intensive task, with track jacks, end-connector wrenches, road-wheels,rope, and pry bars. On the M48A5 Tank the track blocks actually were designed in specific to be put on with the U-shaped wedge as shown for maximum traction. As a newly minted Armor 2LT at Ft. Irwin, imagine my chagrin after discovering with my crew we had put an entire new track on backwards, much to the amusement of the 1SG after we finished.

#1  When they say 'ran down' I wonder if that also means 'ran over.'
