Backstage visit to Ft Benning Tank Collection

Two Panthers. The rear idler on the one with the tracks looks unusual. The idler on the one without tracks looks a little low too, but it might just looks different without tracks

 

More US Heavies

 

Various German stuff

 

Early and later T-34s and another row of US Heavies and Pershings

 

Kettenkrad with an AT gun of some type and a front view of the 251

 

You're right, of course. I was thinking Grant when I typed Lee. Grant much better looking, in my opinion.

Sorry but I don't remember if there was a name on the side of the Churchill. As you can imagine, I was in extreme (albeit happy) sensory overload

 

Thanks Dave, wonderful set of photographs and great information. I cannot believe I did not know all this was happening so close to me. May have to infiltrate !!

I just found a lot more pictures of the shops and restoration work on the web

Fantastic photos, Dave. Since I could only salute one post in this thread, I was, for some reason, inspired to salute the one with the Hellcat. Hmm.

 

The vehicle that is identified as a Stug IV is actually a Jagdpanzer IV. Otherwise, great job with the photos and thanks for sharing!
