Mark Aldrich Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 TankFest Northwest is this coming Monday (Memorial Day) at Paine Field in Everret. Should be another great show as they always open the aircraft hanger as well as having cool military collector vehicles. This year, I hope the Sherman is close enough to get some good shots!

Warwheels Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Hey Mark. Sounds like a fun time. If they have any WFV's or Armored Cars, can you take some photos for WarWheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Aldrich Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Patrick, I sure enough can! Here is a link to the 2011 show pictures. It will probably be the same types of vehicles. http://www.ipmsusa3.org/gallery/v/walkarounds/armorshowsandmuseums/TankFest/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warwheels Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Cool. If you can get more pics of the M274 Mule with RR and M38 Jeep, that would be great. No need for any M3A1 SC pics as I have a TON of them already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Aldrich Posted May 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 With the collapse of the Skagt river bridge, Mrs. TreadHead and I have decided to move our Hotel closer to the event to ensure traffic is not a factor. http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/24/us/washington-bridge-collapse/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Aldrich Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Once again, the show was great!!!! Even with the mandatory rain! Seeing and hearing the M4A1 was a real treat and the 75mm gun firing was louder than the two 88mm guns. I think it was because the 88s fired into the air and the tank fired gound level!
