very stuck in a mud road in 1928... why did they even attempt to cross without draining the road?

the above is probably an "after" they went through the mud, but it gives a good view of the size of the tank

I'm thinking the above when when they began to think they had a problem, and told someone to take a photo

and about here is where they got stuck so bad they couldn't make anymore progress forward

I wouldn't go down this without a bridge! Looks like water on both sides, and probably is right after the spring thaw by the sold weather hats they are wearing
