Lorena G. your link doesn't work but I would love to see your pictures. I was wondering if MOTT would ever go to a southamerican country..
This website is amazing!! I have been hocked to it for quite sometime.

Since you are from Uruguay you know that the Maciel Hospital in Ciudad Vieja and the Italian Hospital are beautiful buildings to be photographed. I am going in summer time (winter here) and will take some pictures...

Googled "S9JNA" for fun, and got this: http://redbook.gao.gov/7/fl0031860.php

Still don't know what it stands for, but the rocket ammunition was M28A2 HEAT, which, according to the infallible Wikipedia, was used by the M20 "Super Bazooka," which entered production just before the start of the Korean war.

I suppose it was given or sold to France in case of a Soviet tank invasion.
