Army to place large metal plates on DC streets to protect them from tanks during June parade

The Army will place large metal plating at key points on Washington's streets. That's to better protect them from the thunderous movements of 25 M1 Abrams main battle tanks set to roll through the capital in a military parade on June 14.

    Isn’t DC a swamp? Whats the temp and humidity expected to be out there during the parade?

    Better start taking bets on how many soldiers fall out to heat.

    Would be just chefs-kiss if some of those tanks broke down during the parade though.
