Ok, first, background: I am an MP, recruiting Assistant, and a Hawk
door gunner for the Iowa ARNG. I am stationed out of Camp Dodge, in
Johnston, IA [suburb of Des Moines]. Part of Dodge is the Iowa Gold
Star Military Museum. The Museum houses a pretty good collection
inside, and outside we have various armour and a couple helos. We also
have an Iraqi T-55, BMP, howitzer, and AA gun. All of these were
confiscated during Operation Desert Storm. They were flown back to Des
Moines, then brought to Camp Dodge. They have not moved since being
placed. they are in the original condition from when we took them from
Iraq.

extremely stripped down.]
