I went there in '92 to visit an old WW II tank Co CO and he took me to Bovington. I was very impressed at everything...except my old combat horse M-46 which was in pieces, being restored. I observed ther quietest and smoothest running M-4A3E8 Sherman I have even seen and was able to back up a Pz III for a few feet to let another tank out. (this was an error as they thought it was one of their guys inside, but goody for me). The Battle Day was impressive and I have a lot of respect for British tank crews.

On another theme, just was informed that HL will be putting out a STU III in November and a Pz IV and KV-1 should be in Europe very soon. They are also studying a Crusader Mk II, KT and Sherman. (which model ?).

Now, if they can just tweak the electronics a bit and leave out the extra screws that eventually stick to the motors...
