New museum opening soon.
Listening to Macca's Australia Allover this morning mention was made of a museum opening soon in Cairns, North Queensland.
The Australian Armour & Artillery Museum has 26 tanks and 24 artillery pieces. They have a web site, www.ausarmour.com David

New armour museum
Hi All
I heard on the Macca All Over ABC Radio this morning an interview with a representative of a new "Australian Armour and Artillery Museum" in Cairns Queensland. They are looking for WW2 veterans who were part of tank crews. The museum people wish to interview the WW2 Tank crew veterans and they and their stories will immortalised as part of the new museum. I checked out their website and reproduced part of the site below. I am sure there are some Aussie MLU members out there who may know some of those WW2 veterans and put them in touch with the museum Cheers Tony Quote:
