LarryH57 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) I have a suggestion for the Tank Museum. At one of your open days or Tank Fests get a line up of British Army vehicles from 1939 and the same for 1945 to show the public, how the Army changed in 6 years. So for example 1939 could have a Vickers Mark VI light tank, Matilda I, an aero screen Bedford WOT or Morris CS8, motorbike and side car, 2 pdr AT gun and re-enactors in early style kit etc, and for 1945 have a Comet, M5 Halftrack, Jeep, 17 pdr AT and re-enactors in late war uniforms and kit. Much else can be provided thats too long to list but it has great potential interest to the public and us too!
