As some of you may know, most of the armored vehicles were removed from the Patton Museum at Fort Knox three years ago and sent to Fort Benning, Georgia. We are in the midst of creating a new museum called the Patton Museum of Leadership. In an effort to find some historical artifacts for the museum, the volunteers have been searching the post in hopes of finding something suitable. I do a web site for the Patton Museum volunteers, Armor for the Ages, which has two new sections, GHOSTS OF FORT KNOX Part I and Part II with photos and text of our searches. Although much of the stuff is shot to pieces, we have found some interesting things. The first link takes you to the home page where you can go to the Patton Museum volunteers section or visit the Fort Benning section. http://www.armorfortheages.com/ This link will take you directly to the Patton Museum volunteers section. http://armorfortheages.com/GGPM/GGPMmain.htm Garry Redmon

Garry Redmon here. Patton Museum volunteer. Was here before, everything expired and I had to re-register. I do a web site for the Patton Museum volunteer program at http://www.armorfortheages.com/GGPM/GGPMmain.htm and I also do some on the future U.S. Army National Armor and Cavalry Museum that will be built one day at Fort Benning, Georgia. You can see that here at http://www.armorfortheages.com/NACM/NACMmain/NACMmain.htm Garry

The Patton Museum 60th Anniversary Celebration will be held the weekend of May 30-31, 2009 at the Patton Museum, Fort Knox, Kentucky. There will be battle reenactments both days depicting an engagement between U.S. and German forces at the close of World War II. There are still details to be worked out and hopefully there will be other exhibits, demonstrations and static historic military vehicle displays. Go to the recently redesigned site http://www.armorfortheages.com/ and follow the link from there to the event. As details become available, updates will be posted, so please visit frequently to get the latest information. This event is in no way as large as War and Peace, but some here may find it interesting in its own, quaint way.
