Just found out my diorama was accepted at a museum so I'm in a good mood.

Was looking through some old photos and ran accross this one. I know nothing about it but can only wonder who came up with this one.



Enjoy,
Bob

I think that there is one of them stealth vehicles :-) :-) :-)

'Zat RR on the back there to discourage amorous farmboys..? :-) :-) :-)

acav out...

I assume you're kididng right? Sorry if I don't read you correctly. It wasn't common to place weapons combinations on mounts -- to see how they would fare (alpine or mountain conditions).

As you can see, the recoilless rifle is only there for hauling, not firing.

:-)
Roy, Sorry I should have been more precise.

1st off aiming it would be interesting and I sure wouldn't want to run it down after the 1st shot.

Yes I wasn't serious.

Nice one Bob

Which dio and which museum?

The Wisconsin National Guard Museum, 32nd Infantry Division, Volk Field - Camp Williams, near the village of Camp Douglas.

For my Fathers birthday a while ago I made up a diorama for him concerning the 32nd Infantry Division, his old outfit during the Berlin Crisis. It was of a Medal of Honor Winner, Dirk Vlug and his single-handedly knocking out 5 Japanese tanks in the Philippines.

I have a couple of photos in my gallery. Gallery

My Dad didn’t want anything to happen to it so he took it up and asked if he could donate it. From Dads description they were happy to accept, and put it on display as Dad was standing there.

I have to admit it feels great knowing it’s there. Like a proud parent.

I've just checked out the pics and you should be proud mate!

Always nice to get some recognition from strangers (not just your family saying "ooh that's nice dear...")

Congratulations!

Thanks Matt,

It was a great story to reproduce.
Bob

Chasing is down wouldn't be a problem, I'm thinkin'. Given where the backblast would end up, I don't see that mule going anywhere other than to a glue factory. :-)

Sans tête.

Paul

What, haven't you guys ever seen a "PAK" mule before? :-)

Jesse

Thanks for sharing Bob. That is a cool picture. I had never seen that before. I have seen the set up for a 75MM Pack Howitzer to be carried in pieces that way.

With gas prices the way they are maybe that would be a better alternative!

Thanks again, HARV
