War or no war, my personal view is that
the past is gone, and mutilation of museum exhibits, shows lack of wish
to preserve. The tank had been used for evaluation shoot, then left to
vandalism. I had to do a lot of cleaning up inside the turret, full of
garbage, soft drink cans etc. This Tiger was removed to unknown location, and
has nothing to do with Kubinka Museum.
Kubinka, is an excellent museum, if only one
could get any response from
them.
