    Many years ago, I went to a museum in Bulgaria, quite a few statues & busts of the Communist great & good were just dumped in the long grass around the back.

    Whole blood isn't freezable, but plasma is, as there are no cells to suffer damage from freezing/thawing in it.

    You've missed off the Tiger tank in that lake in (insert country)!

    It's a German one. Panzertriebwagen Nr 16 (PzTrWg 16 or PT 16).Russian 76,2 mm FK 295/1 gun in a turret. Similar with a 105mm howitzer. Other versions had panzerIV turrets, Flakvierling or 37mm Flak guns, flat beds with (often) Pz38t on them, that had ramps to off-load & pursue partisan attackers, others mounted complete, obsolete, French tanks or some of "Bekker's Funnies" on them.

    ""The Gooseneck Flare was so called because of the long-necked spout on a container that resembled a large watering can. The main body contained paraffin with a wick placed in the spout. The Gooseneck would be positioned with the spout pointing downwind to prevent flaring when alight. It produced a bright light but was extremely difficult to extinguish in the event of enemy approaching. The Gooseneck Flares were positioned at intervals along the edge of the runway being used at night to assist and guide the pilots of landing aircraft" http://www.rafharrowbeer.co.uk/about.htm

    A lot of the stuff in the USA, was straight out of the factory & straight into the desert storage areas! That looks like what's happened to the engineless B24s shown in the photo after the motorbikes. As to what was left in the Pacific theatre! Morotai Tinian Manilla airport. Shoved into a hole & buried, alledgedly still under the power station. More here http://www.airplaneboneyards.com/post-wwii-military-airplane-boneyards.htm

    More to this than meets the eye (As usual). Seems the proposed museum is in an area zoned for residential use & the Collings' people are trying to use local by-laws to get around it. http://stowindependent.com/planning-board-wrestles-with-collings-museum-application-july-29-2015

    One of the Berthas survived into the Korean War era! Nixie II was the A7V at Aberdeen. Off to the scrapman! A segment of her armour & mg position was saved, on display at the Indiana Military Museum. I wonder now that the AWM has finally got hold of "Mephisto", whether they'll ever let her go back to QL!
