It took the 447th Air Force Expeditionary Civil Engineer Squadron, based out of Missouri, two days, a crane, and a bucket loader to recover an Iraqi T-72 tank discovered at Sather Air Base in Baghdad. While working jointly with engineers from the 277th Engineer Company, 46th Engineer Combat Battalion (Heavy), the Air Force discovered the tank while grading the infields of Sather airfield. The tank has been buried since the first Gulf War.
