Tank is fine. Just never ever rotate your turret while spraying dull coat, especially on a Pershing where the engine grates are rather large.

Don, that's almost as bad as someone working on a tank with his pants off, and spilling CA glue...
Want singed eyebrows,...try loading a few rounds in a Pershing[&:]

LOL I certainly hope your insurance is paid up and you have a nice health plan too. At this rate you'll need both while you get stand up comedian of the year too!

Thanks, that story will give me a smile all day.
Glad you and the tank were not damaged in the adventure.

Don, you certainly know how to make people laugh, I can just imagine the look of terror on your face as your eyebrows went up in smoke, sorry but this is the funniest thing I have read since your last mishap, note to ones self absolutely no electrics to be turned on during painting

I was a welder in a prior occupation and yes, eyebrows do grow back as well as mustaches. Yes I have to agree that burnt mustaches do smell funny for a while until you get used to it.

Battery hatch open in turret floor.
Someone dropped a screwdriver onto the batteries.(not I, I was in the gunner's area)
It shorted.
