This is a minor quibble, however in the "Armory" section it states that the M60A3 can travel at speeds up to 45mph. There is no type of M60 that could travel at that speed over flat terrain, and the speed cited contradicts both the wiki article on the M60 and various sources including Hunnicutt's work on the Patton series of tanks. 2600:6C56:5B00:33B:B826:533D:5D2E:C876 ( talk) 02:17, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
M-60A3 tanks, like the one the man commandeered, can reach speeds of 45 miles an hour and travel almost 300 miles on a full tank of gas.), which is in turn sourcing an officer at that armory. That source (and subsequently the NYT) may also be referring to iterations, extremes, versions, loadouts, or any number of other variables applicable to the tanks held at that particular location. Since this article is about this specific event, I think it's better to cite contemporary and event-specific sources which may refer to unique factors here. Does that make sense? — Fourthords | =Λ= | 02:46, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
The current infobox photo of Shawn Nelson is currently a black-and-white high school photo from 1976. I recently located his Army photo and uploaded it to Wikimedia Commons (File:Shawn Nelson Army.jpg). The Army photo is in color, has higher resolution, and is more recent; therefore, I feel it is a better photo for his infobox. I feel that his high school photo could be kept as a thumbnail in the article. Does anyone object to changing the infobox photo to the Army photo? Thanks!
