My great grandpa was in this Regiment. One of the men on one of the tanks looks like some of the men in my family, so it's cool to think that might be him. Never met him, he died 4 years before I was born

I’m here because I had a conversation with a veteran of the 3rd Armored. He basically said that their accomplishments were often unfairly attributed to the 3rd Army.
