I had seen one of these pictures floating around the forum, I believe the stated source was USA Today paper from back in the day ‘On the Road to Kuwait’. Came across more of the photos online. Were these Navy guys or Army? The McMillan M88 looking rifle makes me think Navy Seal. I guess it would be a PSSR not a M25.

The Marine Corps did not receive the Abrams until after Desert Storm. The M60A1 RISE was in use. It can be distinguished by the reactive armor plates affixed to the hull and turret. The M60 pictured is likely a Saudi tank.

Yeah.
