SdKfz250 recovered from the Pilica river, Poland
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.

According to pictures on FB it is already halfways dismanteled ... and yes, I think this is a "must do" to prevent the water from ruining everythng saved for 70 years! The only question is the one wheater they remount it after a cleaning and consevating proces or if the rebuild everything to a "like new" state ...

One thing they definetly did is documenting everything like archaeologists do.
