There are quite a few reference books on the market which offer such insight, for example, the Panzers in Saumur

Here's a few of the King Tiger at the Patton Museum, Ft Knox, Kentucky. They cut away the armor on one side and replaced it with plexiglas so you can see inside. Nice to see inside, but a crime to do that to such an awesome tank. Camera battery died as I was taking these or there would have been more...

Wasn't the King damaged so they decided to do the cutaway?

As soon as the nice weather returns I need to make another visit there soon. They moved the T-28 yesterday to prepare it for shipping but have not yet announced if it is leaving for sure.

That was one of the big attractions there for me. Need to get back before anymore changes occur.

Jeff, any idea where they are sending the T-28? Man, the moving of that museum is a totally assinine idea and is going to cost a fortune...not withstanding the work involved in reorganizing everything in the new museum complex. Maybe Obama will send them a stimulus package to further complicate the move. When they sent us our T-30, it came in three loads...chassis, turret and tracks, and it was assembled on the front lawn. That T-28 is really going to be a job.

Wehrmacht39, Bovington has a Pz III with the left side cut away. Painted silver inside. German tanks are pretty simple and uncomplicated inside. Cramped, but enough room to get the job done.

Jeff. Charley Lemmons says the T-28 will ultimately wind up at APG, but probably have to move to Ft Benning with the museum first. I gave him a tip....told him UPS has some good delas on oversize parcels.[&:] Some one in Washington must think we have a lot of miney to throw away.

Here are a sample of photos that I took of the PANTHER and other tanks at Jacques Littlefeld's Tank Collection. There's lots of interior shots! Have fun viewing (all I ask is that you guys use these for your own private and not commercial use please). Enjoy! I hope I am not breaking any rules by providing a link to my personal FACEBOOK album so I understand if this is taken off

Here's a couple of my pics from the 2008 BAT battleday. Pic of the Pather's turret just before the cannon went back on, and one of the Jumbo, just before the cannon went back on.

Hi Guys,
I have some pix the might help you out. I have some of the Tiger I in Bovington via the virtual video system in the tank. Whereas they were taken via the LCD tv they came out better than I though they would. They also have a DVD for the Tiger that I bought in the gift shop. you might be able to buy it directly if you like.

Here is a link tankmuseum.org for Bovington. It is the finest tank museum I have ever been to.

Here is Part One of the pix.....enjoy. Bob, thecommanernj

Hi Chris,
Those are some beautiful photos. I don't think mine can compare. Thank you for sharing that wealth of information with us all. Thumps Up! Bob, thecommandernj

PS I bet the barrels don't get very obstructed in that shop...... At Bovi a few buttheads seem to use them for impromptu trach cans.
