The Liberty Memorial Association has struck a deal with a private collector in Missoula, Montana, to purchase a French-made FT-17 tank for $225,000. The 7.15 ton vehicle saw battle on the Western Front during WWI and was put out of commission by German artillery shell in 1918. Museum officials for years have sought to add a tank to the museum's comprehensive collection of World War I artifacts.
