I spent the day at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds Ordnance Museum. It was the first time I was at the museum and I was impressed at the amount and types pieces that were outside and I liked their displays inside the building.
But I was saddened by the condition of the armor outside. It looked as if most was brush painted (poorly), rusting, missing roadwheels, and the labeling was just about unreadable. I was disappointed at the lack of U.S. armor and the armor that was restored was spred out on the base and they frown on you wandering around the base.

Don't get me wrong I understand that it takes a lot of time and money to maintain a collection that size and I really enjoyed my visit.

It does my heart good to see that they are trying to raise the money so that they can get a building up to put everything inside and under cover.
They did have a nice selection of 1/35 armor, for a gift shop
