Visited the RCAR Ontario Regiment museum today

Okay. the first post I made somehow scrambled and dpicated some images whilst not getting the right image. Due to the factthat the file names in that post did not match up to the file nimes I have I could not delete the wrong images and add new ones.

For my birthday my niece took me to Ohawa Ontario and to the RCAR Ontario Regiment museum. We had a blast! they had a number of running tanks including an M-3 Stuart, a number of M-4 HVSS Shermans with 76mm guns, an M-60 and a Leopard 1A4/5 as well as a Leopard 2. In addition there were some smaller vehicles including an M-8 Greyhound and Universal carriers and a few others. A really neatthing is that we got to ride inan M-113 APC and since we werethe first aboard I got to stand in the commander's hatch. The ride was cross-country and it was amazing how quickly the ability to stand comfortably whilst the vehicle traversed dips, hollows and ruts came back. It's a fantastic museum to visit. Oh they just got a WW 2 German 88 Flak gun! AWESOME!

Some sample images I took.

Yeah the file attachment system randomizes file names so we don't have duplicates on the server. Takes some getting use to but it looks like you got it.

That's a great trip, neat so see the hardware working!
