The Marine Corps has a very rich armor history. I found that to be quite surprising. I always assumed that being primarily an infantry force, that wouldn't be the case. But it is. The pics above show some of the vehicles that I've found and also some of the vehicles that I can't find a designation of. The top two vehicles are complete mysteries but the bottom one is the Ontos. Whoever came up with the idea of mounting six 106mm recoil-less rifles to a "mini" armored vehicle should have been tested for crack. That's one of the craziest things I've ever seen, but apparently it worked well in Vietnam. AMAZING.
