    A U.S. Army soldier in MultiCam camouflage uniform and combat helmet is working alongside a heavily mud-covered M1 Abrams main battle tank. The soldier appears to be handling a cable or connector attached to the side of the vehicle. The environment is overcast and muddy, suggesting field training or operational conditions.

    Since first coming into service in 1980, the M1 Abrams tank has become a staple of U.S. Army ground forces. The 67-ton behemoth has since made a name for itself as an incredibly tough, powerful tool that has successfully transitioned from a Cold War-era blunt instrument to a tactical modern lethal weapon. U.S. Army Sgt. Ryan Duginski, M1 Abrams Tank Master Gunner, assigned to Task Force Raider, performed a remote-fire procedure, to ensure the tank’s proper functions at Bemowo Piskie Training Area, Poland, Nov. 6.
