Museo Militar, Cartagena, Murcia, Spain 3

AE501

HONOURED MEMBER RIP
This is the last one.
There is a group of older blokes (see range finder) who go by the name of the the Amigos of the Museo Militar, who live in Spain or come over for holidays and work on various equipments. They got the Sturmgeschutz III working and the M110 is good to go. They are currently restoring a 60 pounder.
There are 3 or 4 more of the glass fronted display units and one is full of 20 - 40mm calibre ammunition, also a lot of studded projectiles.

Hello,
I know the museum. It is wonderful. I recommend a visit.
In the same city, Cartagena, there is also a Naval Museum. The visit is a must.
Here some photos del Museo Naval.
