USMC Training Center - Mattydale, NY - BMP-1 Gallery
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.

Hi All, We’ve posted a gallery of images of the BMP-1 on display at the USMC Training Center in Mattydale, NY. I couldn’t get details as the AFV is entirely fenced in. www.vgbimages.com/AFV-...Y/n-SWSTCG

How did you take the pictures if it is fenced off? Put the lens up against the fence?

Yeah, the old stick-the-lens-up-to-the-chain-link routine. Didn't have time to use the pole and shoot over the top.

Paul and Lauren, Thanks for sharing all of the photos! I think the photos came out ok for the "lens thru fence" shots. I have a few old 35mm from Aberdeen, some ok, some show fence link shadows. Last edited by Rick_Eshleman on Sun Nov 20, 2016 8:32 am; edited 1 time in total
