	PBS Frontline: 'The Tank Man' - washingtonpost.com
		In "The Tank Man," Frontline examines not only the identity and fate of the man in the picture, but how the freedoms he represented have progressed in China's social and political scene.
		PBS Frontline's "The Tank Man" aired Tuesday, April 11, at 9 p.m.
		In a discussion with close friends at WGBH a year ago, we felt that the search for the Tank Man could be the genesis of a program that touched many important issues in China.

		Tank Man was, formerly, an anonymous Chinese student who was participating in the usual daily protests regularly held in Tiananmen Square ever since the founding of the Ming Mong Dynasty (c 1903).
		Tank Man further impressed the Chinese crowds and Chinese military with incredible feats of strength and bravery, such as benchpressing an aircraft carrier, reciting pi to 1,000,000 decimal digits whilst juggling several unexploded nuclear landmines, and cooking a sperm whale with his portable wok in a world-record breaking time of 2.7 seconds.
		Tank Man has many superattributes, such as the ability to swallow the Pacific Ocean, the ability to stretch his legs to enormous lengths, and can also hold his breath for a very long time (up to two minutes).

	Lone Sentry: Tank Talk (German tank trends, panzer tactics, vulnerability of Pz. Kpfw. VI Tiger tank)
		In an effort to combat attacks by tank hunters, the Germans have fitted the Tiger with S-mine dischargers, which are fired electrically from the interior of the tank.
		German tanks undoubtedly are formidable weapons against a soft-shelled opposition, but become a less difficult proposition when confronted with resolution combined with a knowledge not only of their potentialities but also of their weaknesses.
		When a tank approaches, the tank hunter waits until it is close enough to the pivoted board, and, at the very last moment, he pulls the free end of the board across the road.

		The story of Tank Man is probably not the story you think it is. Most folks believe he was a young student, probably part of the demonstrations that ended in Tiananmen Square the night of June 3-4, 1989.
		There was a report in 1990 that Tank Man had been identified as the 19 year old son of a factory worker, and that he had been executed.
		Tank Men to all those, not just the Chinese government, who would tell us how to think, or who tell us -- as China tells her people -- that there is no such thing as Tank Man, that he never existed, that, in fact, he never could exist.

	The Peking Duck: The story behind the Tiananmen Tank Man Photo
		I've written about the "Tiananamen tank man" before, but I just came upon this article that details how the famous picture came to be taken.
		By the time the photo appeared the man was already world famous from the broadcast of him stepping in front of the tank, which then tried to drive around him, whereupon he blocked its way in that direction too.
		If tank man was found it would bring new hope to all of us in the weastern hemisphere, but its been almost 17 years since that photo has been seen in china, it wount mean anything to the new age university students, because of all the "new freedoms" that they now have.

	Developing the Tank
		Highly vulnerable to mechanical breakdowns, fourteen tanks never made it to the starting point and as the day progressed most of the tanks were crippled due to mechanical failures, unsuitable ground and artillery fire.
		Although other tanks were on the drawing board, material shortages limited the German tank corps to these A7V’s and some captured Mark IV’s.
		The British continued building heavy tanks as well, including the Mark V, Mark VI, Mark VII and a joint U.S.-British project on the Mark VIII or “International.” The U.S. accepted an order to build 1,200 Renault FT-17 light tanks, and the Ford Motor Company agreed to develop a two-man light tank for the U.S. Army.

		"The tank, which cost £500,000 brand new, was used in Kosovo which is quite different from its use nowadays," said Stephen, who is a road breakdown mechanic for a private firm.

	a Brown Bag Blog: Tank Man!
		When I was in college we all sorta assumed that the Tienamen Square tank man was rounded up and killed at some point.
		Armed with nothing more than the suspicion he was on TV and the courage to embrace his human rights, one lone student thought he could do for China what Walesa did for Poland and what Yeltsin was doing for Russia.
		That the tanks slowed down at all is a testament to that hour of hope in the human story, the year when the Wall came down—and others stayed up.

		Both the de-sludging and final washing stages of the tank cleaning procedure can be carried out concurrently without having to change equipment or re-rig.
		Although it is often possible to clean tanks faster by using the Sit and Ride MOVer this increase in speed is often negated due to the 24-hour capabilities of the ROVer 350 system.
