I was hoping someone who had been in an Abrams Tank or had the job of an armor officer could tell me if there are height restrictions, I’ve been in an old tank from ww2 and I found it almost impossible to get in due to my height, I assume it is still the case tanks are cramped? What is the tallest armor officer could be is basically what I’m asking.

The Army max height for enlisted tank crewmen is 6'1". I would imagine the Marine Corps has similar standards for similar reasons (space available inside the things).
