How did the Viet-Cong get an M41 underground? That's pretty impressive.

Something about burying it after dropping it in a pit.
I doubt these drawings are an accurate representation, they're just to give an idea of what it was like.
The tank may not have been so deep.

Ultimate camouflage! Take a whole battalion of tanks and bury them deep underground. No one would he able to see them. Might inhibit their operation a bit.

What nationality was Eartha Kitt? I recall she had a very strange accent. Did she only ever sing the one song about an old fashioned milliouonaaiireee?

No, No, you don't want to do that. There's a lot people don't know about wookies. They smell really bad (flatulence troubles), they refuse to work Saturdays, and if you look at one wrong before he's has his second cup of coffee he's likely to take your head off.
