Armeetreff Ostschweiz Kradolf
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.

The Stiker above belongs to the Länzlinger Collection. Max Länzlinger told me they just acquired an M8 Greyhound, it's in great conditions and comes from Germany Massimo Last edited by Massimo_Foti on Sun Jun 24, 2012 7:04 pm; edited 1 time in total

Massimo, I saw again in your album the very nice M3 Stuart in running condition, and so I started to list all the surviving M3 and M3A1 Stuarts. The PDF file may be ready within few days... P-O _________________ soldat_ryan @ hotmail.com Looking for photos of Sherman manufacturer's plates

The M3 Stuart wasn't there. There were concerns about the availability of off-road tracks, so they kept the tank at home. Anyway, there were plenty of vehicles and they plan to move to a larger location next year. Massimo

It looks like the standard M3 halftrack, for infantry transport ... However I'm not a US halftrack expert _________________ I'm Not Crazy, I'm Just Not You

I came to the same conclusions but, just like you, I am not an expert in US halftrack Massimo
