Okay so 'we' ain't an armor post anymore, Crying or Very sad

but.....

Went by the KYARNG MATES today. Sitting in front, the M60A3 & the M110, once again.

They have been moved onto the concrete slabs in front of the building. Several years ago, they were on the same slabs but were removed to be repainted. For an unknown reason they were never returned until a few weeks ago.

Behind the fence is still the IPM-1 that was repainted at the same time. It used to be statically displayed infront of the 16th CAV HQ building.

I'm told it may be statically displayed beside the other vehicles at the MATES.

I will get some new photos on next visit. There are also some interesting MRAP type vehicles on hand. Hope to get some photos of those also.

Hopefully more to follow
Regards
Don
