A tiny Indian town called Ahmadnagar has the biggest tank museum in the world. i saw a nazi tank there. amazing considering India was never a theater of war for the Germans

If you ever find yourself in Colorado Springs, CO, make sure to tour Dragonman's Military Museum. He is largest civilian owner of armored vehicles and "The most heavily armed civilian in the world." plus a super guy!
