Hi All, We’ve added a gallery of photos of the Indiana Military Museum located in Vincennes, IN. Lots of great stuff to see and many unusual tidbits as well. It is a bit off the main travel routes, but very much worth the effort to visit. www.vgbimages.com/AFV-...ne/n-frR3g Some Teasers:

Thanks Paul. I am definitely planning to go that way after AMPS next April. I think your second Bofors gun outside is actually a 37mm gun. KL

That revision plate on the M47 says it was in service with the Italian Army. Cool report from a very interesting place. I just wish they have more space to store precious artifacts indoor. Massimo

They've got a collection & a half! I'm not sure if the "Long Tom" (126/7) is the 155mm version, barrel looks to short to me, I think it's the 8" Howitzer M1. Uses the same carriage.
