#1: Battlefield Vegas AFVs Gallery Author: vagabond, Location: Constantly moving across USPosted: Wed Apr 19, 2017 6:02 am ---- Hi all,
During a recent tour stop in Las Vegas, we paid a visit to Battlefield Vegas to document what we could of their collection of AFVs. Listed below is what we saw and photographed.
Unfortunately, the USMC vet Sherman was NOT viewable as it is undergoing restoration.
5 Panzer 61 (SN 54682, 54821, 54797, 54695, 54627)
Any pictures of these?

Great shots!

All former Belgian army, the correct type is Leopard 1A5BE. The serials are in fact the registration numbers, serials are on the right on the glacis. Seems our retired Leo's popping up al around the world ( for now I know of some in Australia, USA, Poland and who knows where....).
On the other hand better than on a range as target.
