Guys, I hope I am not breaking any rules here but I just found this video clip online, I had no idea it was public and i wanted to share it because its quite interesting for those of you interested in this Historical period.

This was filmed in late 1994, and this Tank (T55) was nick named "Frog" as it was green (Zabac-Frog) and was the first tank captured from the Serbs by the 5th Korps in Bihac, Bosnia. Anyhow the Guys driving the Tank only knew how to drive forward and backwards and fire the gun, turning was a problem and if I recall the fuel was even some kind of improvised fuel. I got the same video as a gift at one time from a veteran who was there. I've always thought this is a really interesting video!
