Of the record; 'Heinz Barracks ' in Bastogne
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Hello Dontos,

Unfortunately the 41 Tkbat (Regiment Hussars Prince Alexander) is disbanded on August, 1st, 1994. They were based at Hohne Camp which is a few kilometers from the Bergen gunnery ranges. They probably trained a lot.

Between 1979 - 1992 we had 12 tank battalions (including the battalions in storage for mobilisation) equipped with the Leopard 1 and Leopard 2. Now we have two battalions left Sad

the 11th in the south and 42nd in the north.

At the moment the only tank competition we have left is the so-called Bult-Francis Cup (a Canadian who helped to rebuild the Dutch cavalry after the 2nd WW IIRC).

Regards,
Lesley

Hi, Just back from Bastogne, had some action there with the Priest. The good news is that our minister of defence promised that the HQ will be preserved. Michel
