This tank used to be located at a museum in my home state of Virginia, USA. So sad that the AAF Museum is now closed, but this M1917 could not have found a better home! I visited this museum in 2022 and it's such a great collection with great people running it. Congrats on the acquisition!

What kind of weapon was that in the turret?
This is a “female” Tank, that is a shield and sleeve that holds an M1919 .30 machine gun
Saw one at the Museum of the Army in Paris France
Is it running order?
Not yet, but it will be. It is complete and the engine turns over.
3:35 - you mean they took shots at this tank using live ammunition during training?
