Enigma Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Been to the Ardennes and went to Bastogne barracks (where Mac Auliffs cellar was). They have a deal with the Brussels museum with some vehicles including a Sturmgeschutz. They started the Cromwell engine outside the tank so here goes.

Enigma Posted August 6, 2011 Author Share Posted August 6, 2011 More vehicles (stationary). The Sturmgeschutz has a carburator problem (may be missing), its apparently OK besides that. Mathilda; The guide was very nice, spoke English and on its own initiative invited us in the workshop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajmac Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I went yesterday (Saturday) and everything was closed except the cellars, rather disapointed, but hey, I've been to Bastogne! Apparently the Former brussels museum armour collection has all been moved down to Bastogne, but is only accessable during week days and even then only via guided tour. Your right the guide was great, some in our group were vocal in there instance that he should be speaking French! I asked the guide and he confirmed that the Loyd and 6Pdr are both at the Bastogne Barracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
