exactly,
your honor! the
v-packs need to be cleaned
with low-pressure air from
inside-out or tapped gently
to loosen dirt and sand
when air isn’t available.
hmm. your
complaint
also mentions
something
about
track
tension.
now
waitaminit!
I object!
I check track tension
every time!
it’s not
my
fault we
had a thrown track
last week!
he’s right…for
the
most
part,
your honor. he
does perForm track
tension properly…
except
for one
major detail.
he forgets to let his tank
coast
to a stop on level ground!
braking
leaves the track
tight in some places…
… and loose in others.
so…even though he does
the rest of the track tension
procedure correctly, you can
still
have a thrown track?
exactly,
your
honor.
umm…ahem…
hrumph
what’s that,
benning?
err, uh…well,
maybe I’ve made
a
few
mistakes.
but at least my
tank is
clean.
you have
to admit,
sergeant
sanchez, my
tank is the
cleanest
in
the unit.
oh, his tank
is clean all
right, your
honor.
