    I’ve dove on the ones off Pensacola. Right after they were dropped, it was pretty awesome to go down and see a tank with its gun pointing out into the water sitting on the white sand. The last time I dove them, they had subsided under the sand quite a bit. Some of them, only the tread was left exposed. Glad to see the ones off Gulf Shores are still upright.
