I just thought I would mention this museum for anyone who is in that area and would like to see a very nice museum. The museum is located at CFB Shilo in Manitoba Canada. They have both an indoor museum and several outdoor displays. I highly recommend it to everyone. If you contact the museum in advance they will give you a private tour. There are many artillery pieces from different nations. The indoor museum has a little of everything. They have several vehicles from WWI to the present that were donated to the museum by a private collector. You can climb on, in and around these vehicles. There are too many things to list them all here. I will include a couple of web sites. I couldn't find any better links or photographs. Maybe some of our Canadian members can add to this.
I just thought I would share as I was very impressed by the museum.
