Hey All,
Whilst travelling round Canada I came upon CFB Shilo and it's museum.  The museum has a number of captured German WWII pieces (displyed outside in the weather unfortunately).  Inside there is a 'Priest' & an Universal Gun Carrier. No tanks as such but some self-propelled artillery. Much to my dissappointment the museum HAD a Jagdpanzer but it was moved years ago to the National War Museum.  Some pics of the PAKs and so forth can be seen here:

Thanks for the images, great shots.
Its a shame the custodians of these historical weapons dont ensure their condition is maintained in a state that ensures they will not deterioate any more. Up on blocks, undercover and cleaned and painted does not cost much but allows history to age not disappear.
