Post subject: Inquiry : Fort Bliss, Air defence Artillery Museum

Hello,

I am a French modeler and am still working on the realization of a DVD devoted to WWII Italian tanks & fighting vehicles preserved in museums, private collections, ... I am searching for a correspondent living in the area of Fort Bliss (Texas). who could provide me photos of an Italian truck with a mounted gun of 90/53 on display in this museum.

Could anybody help me ?

I thank you in advance. Laughing

Jean Tetard

P.S.: salut Pierre - Olivier !

Hi Tankbuilder, welcome to the forum..... I imagine when Roy Lingle checks in, he'll try to help you out if nobody else already has pics of this vehicle for you. Might be a day or two, he doesn't have the forum access during business hours he used to, so be patient.

I didn't know if it's the same one but the last time I saw the truck-mounted 90mm it was at the US Army Field Artillery Museum at Ft. Sill, OK. Army museums trade exhibits so it may have moved in the many years since I last saw it. Gary

Hi Gary, Thanks for the information. UnfortunatelyI cannot confirm if the truck is now standing at Fort Bliss. The photo was published on this forum : www.com-central.net/in...ht=italian Jean
