Convoy to Remember 2004 in Switzerland
 
Hey Guys

I would like to inform you about the biggest event this year, which happend in Switzerland at the beginning of August. It was called "3rd Convoy to Remember" and was held in Birmenstorf, about 30 km west of Zurich.

There where around 400 - 500 military vehicles, mostly Swiss ones. But I spotted also a Land Rover from the UK! The best event was a Convoy on Saturday morning, took about 30 km, with about 300 vehicles.

In the afternoon was a tank display with around 10 tanks (Panzerjager G13 (post-war Hetzer), Centurion, Swiss Panzer 61/68 and Leopard 2). You'll find my pics here (around 150):
