Default Tanks Don't Float
Don’t worry…this isn’t an amphibious exercise gone FUBAR. It’s actually an effort by officials in Thailand to recycle old tanks and military vehicles by sinking them into the Gulf of Thailand to become artificial reefs. The Thai government hopes that the old war machines will the serve as artificial reefs for coral to help rehabilitate the marine ecology of the region.
