Cobbaton Combat Collection

[Adrian Harris]

A quick first picture from Holger of the guys at the annual VJ Day meeting at the Cobbaton Combat Collection, near Umberliegh in Devon.

Gutted to have missed it due to my accident as it's one of my favourite museums and collections, and Preston, Tim and the staff are vastly knowledgeable and great hosts. Sadly not well attended by the public again, probably due to the excessive heat forecast over the weekend.

Will post more pics when they arrive.

The remainder of the pictures from Holger:

The usual tank aerobatics from Denny....

Apparently, when the Tiger got to the top of the ramps, instead of driving into the trailer, it spat
both ramps out and ended up sitting vertically on its exhausts, with the gun pointing skywards.

Once everyone had stopped laughing, they gathered around to help piece it back together again, with no real damage done.
