DTB,
Tomas here from Texas.. I just returned from a Visit to DC ..I convinced my wife to let us return to Texas via Greensboro NC...with a Pit stop at Danville, VA and the AAF Tank Museum... WOW!! I can't believe what a great collection of Militaria is located in one location!! You are missing out man... You MUST GO VISIT!! The Displays and the Museum is worth it!! I became a Museum Member and I do not live anywhere near VA!! I have had R/C PLANES for 16yrs... and now as of the past 1.5yrs I have had R/C Tanks.... I love Battling with the Tamiya Tanks Just as much or more than Flying my WWII and modern Warbirds!!!
Nemesis, I've recently just moved here (Danville) from Jackson, MS with my wife. I've been in Danville for about 1 month so far, so it hasn't been too long for me, but I pass the tank museum daily. We did decide that we were going to stop and visit the museum soon, but we both work at the hospital and have little time right now, but I will definitely have to go visit the site. I've seen it online and was really blown away from what I saw online. I am going to have to make it top priority now. You live in TX and beat me to the museum. LOL... The museum is really the only attraction here anyway unless you go to the mountains. Which I must add are beautiful during the change of the seasons and basically all year. We just returned from North Virginia visiting a ski resort in the Sheanadoa Mountains which were covered with snow and across the high way were the Blue Ridge Mountains. Surrounded by Mountains literally. Virginia is beautiful country.
Thanks for the advice and I will go visit it for sure now.
