Neil Baumgardner's Official U.S. AFV registry now available!
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.

It's in the "sticky" thread at top of the forum menu, and can be found here:

www.com-central.net/in...amp;t=4853

It is also now available as a pdf file without registration for non-members at Com-Central at this address:

216.176.86.154/afv/USA...s_V2.2.pdf

Mega-thanks to Neil for his Herculean effort on this task and to Com-Central for hosting it (and to George Bradford for bringing us all together).

So, who's gonna' step up and do the 'Urpean version(and Asian, and S. American, and all the other continents, huh)? Wink

Hmm... I dont know what the problem is, it opens up for me fine. Have you tried right clicking on the link and saving ('saving target as') to your desktop? Neil

Incidentally, from the message you are getting, it seems to think its on your hard-drive? Hence the C:\ part of it? Not sure what to tell you... May want to check the link address your computer is telling you. Neil

Incidentally, I am doing a fairly major reformatting. After seeing Leslie's originals, I decided to so reformatting. In particular almost all locations will be listed under the city, instead of in the notes on the right. This will also reduce the footnotes (which had become rather cumbersome), albeit with more pages. At the same time I will try to include a content page with links to each state. This may be more of a V2.0 than 1.1...

Hey folks - I've been thinking (always dangerous)

And I'm going to put Neil on a spot. I just sent him a PM with a couple correctiona and in it I told him I've got a friend with a 'Comb binding machine' and once I get my copy bound would he autograph it for me.

Continuing that thought-This list runs about 85 pages printed out in it's current form. I plan on keeping a printed copy with me when I travel so I can know about any nearby spots I want to see if a trip changes while I am on the road.

I think that a spiral or comb bound edition would sell at places like Aberdeen or the Patton museum and possibly some other places. What do y'all think?

Bob, great idea, with a couple of adjoinders. One, this just about has to be a "living document" that is continously updated. That probably makes it better for the web... Two, well, it would have to be cleaned up an awlful lot to be printed professionally... Neil
