Old Crow Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 A while back someone posted a link to a museum in Virginia that had a Tiger tank as well as some other vehicles. I've tried searching the board but the "search" function isn't working properly, it just sits there forever. If anyone has information on this museum's location I'd be greatful.

BFCElvis Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 Yo Crow, I was recntly in DC (bordered by Va.) and on the way home stopped at Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Aberdeen, Maryland. Are you sure that isn't what you're thinking of? They have a field that is open 24/7 that has most of your major WW2 tanks. They also have a museum that was closed when I got there.

I did that too on a trip, got there on a Monday. Check the link below, I believe they are now open seven days a week except for certain holidays. Here's the link to the United States Army Ordnance Museum at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland: http://www.goordnance.apg.army.mil/odmuseum.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lempereur Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 The Tigers are no longer there. The Tiger II is in Ft Knox and the Tiger I has been shipped over to Germany to be restored. There is a Jadgtiger there and the best restored ww1 French tank (r-35?) and Anzio Annie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, the Patton museum at Ft Knox is very nice, although the drive down from Louisville can be pretty tough if you hit traffic at the wrong time. Be sure to swing by the gold repository afterwards!

Old Crow Posted June 13, 2001 Author Share Posted June 13, 2001 It's about 3.5 hours from me. I've got duty this Saturday so I'll probably go next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFCElvis Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 I actually went on a Friday going from DC to an afternoon in Baltimore and stopping through Aberdeen at about 6:30pm....Still plenty of light but that's why it was closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
