Hello,

Here is a picture from last weekend's Military Vehicle Show here in Florida.
It was in Mount Dora, Florida.

All guns are live, including the .50's they put on a great show this year, and the .50 brass was left for the kids to take as souvenirs !!


Best Regards,

Ray

Hello Zeph,

It was very impressive and very loud :D :D :D
They fired right down the line, one after the other, 5 tanks, and also did full battle reenactments with guns blazing !!!
All the guns are active, and this group spends a lot of time, sharing history across Florida, as they have complete crews, assigned to each tank, and even have some wheeled vehicles meticulously restored , as well as huge M-series sleeping quarter trucks with expanding walls, a kitchen truck, and much more. Very professional, historically accurate, and highly enthusiastic !!!

We in Florida are very lucky to have someone who spends plenty of funds to establish his wonderful collection and organization !!

This is something we don't get to see everyday , and his collection and restored armored task force is getting bigger and bigger :D :D :D :D

They assuredly ..... Keep Them Rolling !!!

Best Regards,

Ray
