Ken,

 

Incredible stories and pictures as always. Thank you for continuing to share with us...

 

Leigh

Hi Leigh, thanks for joining in, sorry to say that I am not getting time to actually add everything that has happened here or is happening presently, some of it may have to be written up way past when the events actually happened.

 

Take care, and say hi to Luther for me, always grateful for the help he offered whenever I visited the museum.

Montormel museum visit to see Panther exhibit.............

 

A group of us went down yesterday to see the short term Panther visit to the museum from the Saumur tank museum, worth the trip and very nice to be able to get close-up to the beast.

Hi Dave, thanks for thoughts on the images and so easy to expand if using an iPad, the image should enlarge well with little loss of quality.

The panther looks very good, I wonder if the Zimmerit works.

Hi Camo-cap, well the Panther is still here so maybe it did, not certain that you would want to be getting so close to it though to stick magnetic mines to it. ^_^

 

I will have to see if Brian can send me some of the images of the Panther that he has been restoring for the past ten years, a total nut, bolt and bare metal restoration.

 

Hope your happy enough for me to be calling you Camo-cap

Hi Ken...if I may? This Panther was at "War & Peace" last month.

 

 

Hi Ian, thanks, I shall make enquiries see if I can find out who owns that one. ^_^

Hi Ian, thanks for the image of Paul, and for the explanation of the raindrop, I just thought that his face had been covered due to being special forces ^_^^_^
