Bill -

Isn't this the old Eastern Bloc version of an operator's manual?
Built-in instructors. Beats trying to translate and operate at the
same time. I hope the seller has been feeding them well.

Speaking of Estonia, did you see the 'German' T-34 they pulled out of
a lake a few years ago?

All systems functioned except the engine. No report of any
Halicrafters gear inside, but it was rumored to have been anchored in
place with a BC-610 to keep it from floating to the surface.
