Luteszh Ukraine museum

Photos from the Luteszh Ukraine museum...near the sight of the 1943 crossing to liberate Kiev. The original sight is underwater as a result of Hydro electric dams. This museum is very out of the way in a backwater looking town with a few soviet apartments and then some new ones as well. Old houses, chickens, and various other animals give way to a very nice Soviet era museum.

Inside the very frequent panaroma of the crossing is in a special room...much ground dug display can also be found. I didnt have enough time to photo it all but I ll be back this summer to finish. Lendlease thompsons were on display as well. Most stunning for me was the three 88 guns outside the museum. I dont think this can be seen anywhere else in the world.

Some great stuff there. Thanks for posting.
You are right; the 88s look impressive.
But what really caught my eye was the Danish Madsen MG (as used by the Germans).
High quality MG which pops up in the strangest places, it seems.
I remember seeing pics of rebels using them in South America only a few decades ago.
