Think there was one in a Ravine in Fort Picket, Va a few years back. I had to ID it from pics (offset turret was key) and figured out it was one of the batch the Marines were issued after the Japs took over the Islands and the Dutch contract they were made for were not going to sent out. Some may still be up in Alaska where most went to guard against invasion. This one had probably stayed around Quantico for training until sent down to Picket for target practice.
No idea where it eventually ended up, possibly still out there.

I had a radio receiver that was fitted to the M-H tanks supplied to the Netherland East Indies forces , these tanks ended up in Australia . The radio was made by the Fred Link radio Co. It was a FM set. I also had the original antenna and base. https://www.rcrwireless.com/19980622/ar ... -link-dies
