לאחר עוד כמה נבירות ברחבי הרשת, התברר לי כי אכן נבנו שני טנקים כאלו, ואפילו הצלחתי לגלות את שמותיהם ! Fermi ו Jumbo

באתר הזה מצאתי אפילו עדות של אדם שהיה בתוך הטנק שיצא לדגום את הקרקע לאחר הפיצוץ

"The Anderson-Nagle-Tabin method was to use a Sherman tank to go into the crater, to dig up samples thru a hole in the bottom of the tank. The tank bottom and personnel compartments were lined with lead. Julius Tabin, Anderson, and I took turns going into the crater, and of course there was a driver. It was dangerous because if the tank stalled, there was no escape; we would have cooked. Our luck held, we got our samples, and the tank didn't stall, but we all got significant doses of radiation.
Fermi's method was simple, practical, and safer. He had George Weil fit out a second Sherman tank with rockets that were to be fired into the crater and retrieved with cables attached to the rockets. As it turned out, the second tank stalled some distance away from where it was supposed to be, and the cables got scrambled up. The experiment failed, but nobody got hurt."
