Location? Type 69 picture in France
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 was quite easy, because that's the only Irakian tank captured during the 1st Gulf war that I knew the existence and didn't have pictures of.. P-O _________________ soldat_ryan @ hotmail.com Looking for photos of Sherman manufacturer's plates

This is the closest I could get in Google Street View, but unfortunately it's not much help: maps.google.fr/maps?f=...9,,1,-8.45 Bing is a little better: www.bing.com/maps/?v=2...204.912627 _________________ Trevor Dr Trevor Larkum Preserved Tanks: PreservedTanks.com Armour Archive: ArmourArchive.co.uk EVs
