I am getting near the end of the pics that I have cropped although I have many more that are interesting they might not have as broad an appeal to make them worth posting.
I am trying to wean everyone off of it gradually...lol.
I do keep pretty busy and it sometimes slips my mind.I thank everyone for their interest,I do have a couple more installments but some of those may be duplicates.
The others would be pics of artillery,tanks etc taken on field trips or on the parade ground at open house day for example.Come to think of it I do have a few color pics of the TD-18 that I must post as well.Don't tell KoO that they are in color.
I would speculate that the concrete apron was there before we got there,probably to control errosion.As you know the Germans were pretty neat,almost anal it seems about some things.I work on German cameras and some of their shutters are complicated to the extreme it seems,tolerances very tight and if one thing is not up to spec it throws everything else off kilter.I enjoy it but you need the patience of Job to succeed at it.
I love those old Voigtlander Bessamatics but a good working one comes with a price.Ron G
