Here is a July photo of that M41 that used to be in Keyes Park but is currently in RMP

Just found another new M41 I think, this time at Zutendaal in Belgium (at least it doesn't seem to be in the Belgium register):

Neil, I may have a new tank for you (it's not in the 2008 edition).

While researching the M41 series I came across some interesting walkarounds on AFVDB. One was of the FK example in Keyes Park, so I added a link to its profile page. Then there was one of an example at Moundsville WV so that got me researching it, and so I've added a location entry for it:

Army National Guard, Moundsville WV

It turns out this one is in your register, but in researching it I came across a 2006 WVNG Annual Report (see link on the page just given) and it clearly shows an M41 at Eleanor, so I've added a location entry for it too:

Joint Forces Reserve Center, Eleanor WV

This one doesn't seem to be in the register so I hope it's a new find. I've included the best links I found for each entry on their pages as usual.

If anyone has photo's of these tanks or locations, please let me know.

Sorry to hear it Neil - there's nothing worse than losing precious data. I have had good results paying a company to recover a broken hard drive, but it was expensive.

FYI, I suffered a hard drive crash earlier this week (Monday was a BAD day - I also got sideswiped!). I'm hoping to get my data back next week, but in the interim I'm sorta offline. I certainly cant update the register until then.

If for any reason I cant get that particular data back, I'll have to rebuild the register based on the last full draft I sent out to someone via e-mail (which thankfully was only a few weeks ago).

Hi all,

I stopped by to see the M53 listed as being at Anthony Aviation at the Pompano Beach, FL airport. They have gone out of business and the AFV is gone.

I’ll try and track it down by going to the Anthony Crane rental (same parent company) and see if anyone can tell me where it is.
I'll post if I learn more.

Cheers!

Neil,

Went to the Ft Stewart museum, Ft Stewart, GA on 8/26/10.

DID NOT SEE:
BMP-1
M24 Chaffee
M60A3
Type 69

The M163A1 was elsewhere on the base. Found it at William H Wilson & 16th.

Also, at the 3-7 Cav HQ on William H Wilson & W 6th, there was an M-26 (SN974) in addition to the M114 listed in the register.

Chris,
Thanks for the confirmation. I was able to find it on Google Maps
maps.google.com/maps?f...6&t=h&z=20

Doesnt show up on Bing too well www.bing.com/maps/?v=2...121.924408

I drove by the Presidio, and tried to get in, last February - but with no luck. I didnt see a thing (although I drove by on Lighthouse Ave near the bay), and the guards at the entrance didnt think there was any such tank...

I can confirm that there is a T-34/85 in Monterey, CA at DLI, Presidio of Monterey. I saw it today as I was driving past the post on Hwy 68. It is painted in a real ugly puke green. I couldn't get any pictures as I blew by it too quickly. I'll try again another day.

Here's a couple more AFVs in Ontario; in Meaford, they've added a Couger AVPG and at the armoury in Windsor, they have a Centurion. Here's a picture of the Couger and I'll post the Centurion later.
Cheers,
John

Congrats Neil,

So I guess we'll be hearing less and less from you over time Laughing

There comes a time you need to draw a line and say anything found after this date goes in the NEXT edition after this one.

Amen Bob,

But until we find someone willing to take on the massive undertaking of the USA register, I guess it's up to Neil where to draw the line. (Draw it soon Neil, I've been waiting for the latest version forever too)

- Neil_Baumgardner

Plus I didnt realize until today you could turn _around_ the bing aerial view camera...

You are welcome! Laughing

And, congratulations...we'll see you in a couple of years.

Congratulations on getting engaged!

Good point Bob - perhaps I'll just finish checking the internet links that I was halfway done with as the "last thing to do" and just publish 3.1, to be followed by 3.2...

And congratulations on the engagement.

Thanks!

Neil
