"Good morning, Gentlemen, I am Sergeant Beausabre. For the next 6 and half days, I will be your instructor on field stripping your M60A1 tank. Gentlemen, the M60A1 tank has 110,543 parts, but we are only allowed to disassemble 63,212 in field stripping. The first step is make sure the main gun is unloaded. Then grasp the hull with the left hand and press down firmly on the turret top with your right. Turn it one quarter turn to the left and the turret will come off. Gentlemen, it is spring loaded, so do not allow it to fly off and kill your buddy."
My AOBC class dreamed up a whole routine one night at Fiddler's Green at the O Club at Knox. "Gentlemen, these are the end connectors, they connect the ends", "Gentlemen, the sprocket wheel has 37 teeth. (Using pointer), One, Two, Three...."
