LarryH57 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Anyone who has visited the National Army Museum in Chelsea in recent years will know that it has been stripped of exhibits it used to hold 20 years ago, sadly making it a waste of a visit. However the NAM has a 'Study Collection' and I wonder where it is located and if its open to the public? https://collection.nam.ac.uk/detail.php?q=searchType%3Dadvanced%26advancedText%3D%26associatedName%3D%26unit%3D%26event%3D%26campaign%3DWorld%20War%20Two%26fromDate%3D%26toDate%3D%26productionNotes%3D%26keywordNotes%3D%26placeNotes%3D%26ot[]%3D12%26ot[]%3D26%26ot[]%3D2%26ot[]%3D40%26ot[]%3D29%26ot[]%3D4%26ot[]%3D25%26ot[]%3D33%26otArc%3D1%26otArt%3D1%26otBmu%3D1%26otEqt%3D1%26otWea%3D1%26otVA%3D1%26resultsDisplay%3Dlist%26page%3D2&pos=4&total=2259&page=2&acc=1998-09-79-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
