T-62 in transport

This T-62 is being transported on a heavy trailer.  No date or location was given with this period photo, but the white markings on the tank are consistent with the invasion markings used during the suppression of Czechoslovakia in 1968.  These can be seen as the white patch at the front of the turret and the white stripe along the back of the tank.
