Don't they have any sense of history and a wee bit of common sense over there? Demilitarise what? 70 year old hulks. A restorer or two coûld save a bit of history by gosh. Thanks for your efforts old boy. Robert

Rick,
Isn't the term 'put beyond use', couldn't one argue that they are already torn up hulks and thus already 'beyond use'? You need a man from the ministry with you ![]()

What a shame, most likely war time ones from D day that made it all the way, sad state of affairs. You would of thought the British government would step in a reclaim them after all they belong to the British tax payer. They still scrap them over here so I hold out little hope for them.
Kevin.

they were offered to the tank museum who were not interested but I suppose none of them are tanks and there must be 30 range wrecks still left on the ranges over here. so no real need
I plan on going to Germany on Monday as the tanks are being cut up daily and time is of the essence. rick
