    That's ok, it's probably better to guess one and start another, but I'm sure if ol' AZRider focuses he can keep up

    No it's not Los Alamos or Ft Carson, but Los Alamos was closer. Actually AZ's guess of 29 Palms was the closest (mileage wise).

    Another Hint: It's open to the public and they have a LOT more tanks than shown in the picture. Those are actually waiting to be restored.

    is it Fort Huachuca???

    You Got It Mike!!!

    Actually now it is the General Patton Meseum on I-10 just west of Blythe, CA.

    Until I stopped there last weekend to get out of the heat, I never realized mesuem was even there, or that at one time on that spot was the worlds largest Army depot, where troups were trained in desert heat during WWII before heading to No Africa.

    Here's some more info on it...
