More M777 :
According to the Twitter thread it was posted in, the featured M777 below is NOT a captured gun. This video was made by a Ukrainian soldier…

‘captured’ could mean ‘captured on film’

Training on the YPR-765 :
I still remember how to drive one of those, which is shocking cause I don’t remember much…
1980’s US Army Cav doctrine on utilizing M113’s in combat:
- Enter ambush - backup and run away.
- Rocket / missile fire - backup and run away.
- Indirect fire - backup and run away.

I know EXACTLY which direction they are headed …
On a more serious note (as if their current heading isn’t serious enough …)
They are coming from the top of the picture trying to cross over to the Ukrainian side.
Look at all the tracks leading to the two pontoon bridges. Lots of tracks on one side, almost none on the other. Tracks are made by pontoon bridge trucks backing down to the river to launch their pontoon segment and then driving away to make room for the next truck.
Red arrow points to a truck which I interpret as a pontoon carrier.
Possibly maybe also the truck by the blue arrow

Question for the experts. What the service life on a barrel? Say a 777.
Great to see the Dana in action. Kind of hoped it would be repainted or have pixel camo added. I will wait a bit longer to start my model just to see if a picture with more details show up - especially camo and markings.
It depends upon the charges for each round fired, so it varies.
