Brtiain: Depends what you are in to. Guessing military, try these: (no special order)

RAF Museum Hendon (north London)

Imperial War Museum (south London, or at least sth of the river)

Tank Museum, Bovinton (Dorset)

Portsmouth historic harbour (south coast, HMS Victory, Warrior, and historic dockyard, with a chunk of the modern RN as well)

Porchester Castle (not far from Portsmouth, Norman castle on Roman site)

Any of the North Wales castles (if you are in to 12-14th cent castles), notably Carnarvon (sorry to the Welsh for sp), Conway, Beaumaris, Harlech.

If you want more tourist mainstream give me a email, I can go on for hours!

The conception of such a plan was impossible for a man of Montgomery's innate caution...In fact, Montgomery's decision to mount the operation ...[Market Garden] was as startling as it would have been for an elderly and saintly Bishop suddenly to decide to take up safe breaking and begin on the Bank of England. (R.W.Thompson, Montgomery the Field Marshall)
