Memorial museum Passchendaele 1917

Hi members,

First I like to thank the people who helped us out a few times to identify our collection.
Now I like to post some pictures of what we are doing in the museum.
We open a new wing of the museum, dedicated to the Battle of Passchendaele, the men who fought in it and also the equipment used.
We have a huge collection of ordnance on display. All painted in the colors like they used to look like. I think this is certainly something a lot of you will like!

Greets,

pete,

Thanks for taking & posting great pics.

Most of us would never be able to get there & see this in person, your pics are the next best thing.

Regards Ozzi.
