Tucked away on base at Fort Moore, Georgia inside a large warehouse-like building rests a unique feature of the history of war in the world.
The U.S. Army Armor & Cavalry Collection has a large collection of tanks and other cavalry vehicles spanning over a century.
These hulking tanks date back to World War I and come from countries around the globe including Italy and Germany.
Robert Cogan, Curator of the Armor & Cavalry Collection, and Robert Barlow, a museum specialist and restoration shop manager at Fort Moore, give a brief overview of their work in this short video.

That place needs to be open to the public on a regular basis. We don't have a national armor museum like other nations. We have this and that spread out all over the place and this collection is really the closest we got in terms of in the hands of the government. Funny how once upon a time I was running around some of these pieces when they were at Fort Knox. But now out to pasture and the mandate of this collection is not for the public. Sad face. This GWOT once upon a time Cav Scout would like to be able to go to this place.

It's ridiculous that Taxes from All Of Us pays for this Collection, including the Blood spent... Yet it's hidden away from the Public that pays for it. Seems Un-American somehow...

It's a classroom that we can sometimes open to the public. If we could run it like a museum and allow anyone to visit, we would, but we can't. The Armor and Cavalry Heritage Foundation is trying to raise money for an actual Armor and Cavalry Museum that will always be open to the public, but until they can raise enough money to build it, this is the best we can give you. If you want to complain to someone, then Congress is who I would point you to, since it is Congress that is the obstacle that prevents your tax dollars from supporting the construction of a museum.
