I did not know these anti aircraft weapons exists. Fantastic pieces, i am happy to see they have examples in the museum for all to see and learn from.

Hi Trond, that is good.

Hopefully now care of the Museum and through our forum they will become better known.

Cheers, Ade.

Hi Ian, I know who you are thinking of, Airey Middleton Sheffield Neave, DSO, OBE, MC.

Here is a cardboard cut-out of him taken by the Germans after his escape attempt. This was not on display for some reason when I was at Colditz, but Bee took this pic on her earlier visit.

Keep your head down and enjoy the cash!

Cheers, Ade.

[Adrian Stevenson]

Some more ordnance related kit.

Tiger tank muzzle brake: demo charge to spike a gun: bar mine, magnetic mine, MG42 and spare barrel holder, etc.
