Aircraft Armament 45M20 Trained at APG, stayed after training to teach for a year. That was the year of the Vietnam wind down and we actually went for almost 4 months with zero students. An in-house vacation.

I went to APG at the Track and Wheel repair school "63H10". I loved the surrounding area, and the open Tank museum was awesome as well. A true German Tiger tank with evidence of a direct frontal hit, from a round more likely from a Sherman tank. It did not penetrate it nor disable it.

mfurrh55, sorry to hear about your Son, was it in combat?
