Happy 1 year Tank-aversary! 🎉

On November 14th, 2024, the US Army Reserve 443rd Transport Company moved this 93,000 pound tank from Post 298 in Burwell, Nebraska to Papillion, Nebraska. With the help of Patriot Crane & Rigging LLC, the tank was lifted off the HET M1070 tractor trailer and onto Post 32 property. With all the support from our community and volunteers, we were able to safely and successfully place this iconic static display in Papillion.

Since the tank was placed, we were able to get it cleaned and painted, looking fresh for its new home at Post 32.

Coming soon- Informational and Historical displays posted near the tank for visitors to read and learn more about the tank & its history, sponsored by Sustainable Mechanical Inc.

Yesterday, Mario Marquez, executive director of The American Legion's Government Affairs office in DC, was among the panelists during a roundtable organized by the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs GOP/House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs Democrats. The participants discussed veterans benefits at the Cannon House Office Building.
Marquez closed by talking about Compensation and Pension examinations. "In light of all the conversations about toxic exposures, one of the things we have seen is the impact that the amount of improper or inappropriate C&P exams are having on the disability claims process," he said. "Getting a veteran from service to the actual health care system in VA is getting derailed. We are asking to implement rigid oversight, quality assurance and accountability for third-party contractors."
