At least this stuff gets a chance instead of getting deep-sixed like we do with our equipment.

French museum is selling off its historic collection... - Daily Mail - August 23, 2016

"...The museum only opened in 2013 but its co-founder Stephane Nerrant said: 'We thought the museum would attract more people."

"'The terrorist attacks had a considerable impact on visitor attendance,' he told Bloomberg News, adding that strikes had also hit numbers.

"The museum was based on the private collection of founder Mr Nerrant's father Patrick, who started buying WWII tanks in the 1980s..."

What a tragedy that this collection will be broken up and sold piece meal to the highest bidder. Future generations will never know or experience what D Day cost in lives and treasure in order to pull this off and to liberate Europe.

Even more tragic is the effect Muslims have had and will have on European tourism.

Download and save the catalog; you will never see a collection of D Day memorabilia of this caliber again.
