Dangerous move! Latvia sending a tank to Estonia under an agreement. In a few years the Estonians will write it down in history as an invasion!

LOL You know I would not been surprised if they did or do just that. The T-55AM broke our border HELP! The Russians invades! A question does even T-55AM or T55AMV being used today even as a reserve tank? I have seen T-62MVs but no T-55s. If Poland want to they can donate me a T-55AM personally I love them as they a pieces of true beauty. A different tower and main gun and different ammo storage and that machine could probably still make havoc. ;)

Is it really true that a Russian tank is on the streets of Estonia? Oh my God! Oh my God! The tank is probably a prop for a movie depicting Russian attempt to take over Toompea during 1991 (if my date is correct).

Next generation Estonians will blame Russia for invasion of their country by Latvia with Russian made tank T-55 with the argument that Russia deliberately armed one country against the other and disrupted the balance of power which underwent economic demise. Future international court actions are in the making.

The Latvians should have asked to borrow the converted T-55 into a fake German Panzer III that was used in the recent Leningrad reenactment. Then the whole thing would have been absolutely pathetic.

I hope that Putin and Medvedev are able to sleep at night now that the Estonian Kodukaitse has a tank. I advise the Estonians to face the tank south and capture Riga with it instead of Moscow.

What a concept, inter Baltic war with a tank. Now that could be complicated, everyone would start on one side, help the enemy, then switch because it looked better, then switch back again, all the uniforms would need changing each time, maybe interchangeable emblems could be a good idea. Then the tank would need a repaint several times and everyone would be hampered because the tank didn't come with German language instructions. Everyone would claim invasion, the winner would be demonised and the Estonian aftermatch report woud look completely different to the facts anyway, and of course it would all be Russia's fault.

Count Cash, "...and of course it would all be Russia's fault." Of course. Those who built the tank will bear the responsibility for the upcoming Esto-Lato war - the consequences of which are unimaginably horrible for the human race. The fun will begin when the Estonians refuse to return the tank to the Latvians, or if they wreck it. This single tank has become a status symbol for both nations. A decade ago there was an Esto-Laro war in the gulf of Riga when boat loads of Estonian and Latvian fishermen were throwing fish at one another while arguing about fishing jurisdictions. This "war" ended inconclusively. Perhaps now that the tank is in Estonian hands, the tide will turn in favor of Tallinn. Stay tuned with great anticipation.

CountCash writes, "Dangerous move! Latvia sending a tank to Estonia under an agreement. In a few years the Estonians will write it down in history as an invasion!" Reminds me of a joke I recently heard. An Estonian customs official was checking the entry documents of a Russian at the airport. The Russian had not completed the entry card, leaving some lines blank. Noticing a blank line, the customs official asked, "Occupation? To which the Russian replied, "No, just visiting."

That reminds of joke about the Estonian Jew visiting Russia. He arrived at the Airport to find long queues, to beat the queues, everyone was filling in their immigration cards, as they stood in the queue. He did the same. but the immigration officer noted that whilst everyone else had their passport open and were awkwardly holding it and trying to fill out the form. The Estonian jew never seemed to look at his passport, he just seemed to look down and fill out all details. So the time came when the Estonian Jew came to the immigration cabinet. The immigration officer was puzzled, so he said to the Estonian Jew, sorry I am curious, how can you fill in all details, without even looking at your passport, do you have such a good memory. The Estonian Jew smiled back and said, its not that hard, I always remember my family name, flight number ... but I also had a bit of luck, when I received my Estonian passport, its number matched the one the Estonians had tatooedd on my arm.

What shocks me most and I do not mean the jokes, which are actually very good.Is that countries just spoiling for a fight with Russia do not really have an army that will even last a day against the Russians.They seem to hide behind the strength of their western allies.Its like a puppy biting at the heels of a bear with the hope that his big brother will step in when the bear really gets angry.Really pathetic
