    ^You need the gunner in the turret to fire the gun, assuming there's even a shell loaded. (If not, you need a loader sitting inside to load it.) I don't think they have been sitting in the turret all this time with the hatch closed. :D

    Indeed. I remember when the Corps got their first Abrams. I was still working the M60A2 and A3.
