Josh and I took the opportunity to go to the
American Armored Foundation tank museum in Danville on Run Day, which is when they have a couple of vehicles power up and drive around the display area. (One was an APC and the other was a self propelled gun, not true tanks, but we got the idea). Not as many WW2 tanks as I had hoped for, but they had a number of interesting things. Items of note:
- PzKpfw IV
- tiny Dingo II scout car
- slightly larger Ferret scout car
- M1917 Six Ton Special light tank
- Honest John missile, presumably without the 20kt nuclear warhead
- Mk 41 15cm Nebelwerfer (it werfs nebels!)
They also had a variety of uniforms, unit badges, posters, paintings, and other memorabilia.
