A real machine gun on the side of the road

[STEEL CORE]

Drive past the VFW post in back of FT. Ben Harrison in Indy along Lee rd to Fall Creek rd, they have a Korean War Jet, a WWII Sherman Tank, and a navel gun of some sort at the side of the road.

Two US Navy 32-pounders in Lawton Park in Fort Wayne, both made in 1865:

Been past the South Milford potato digger on may occasions. Sometimes I wonder how it is still there, what with the major security and all.

The VFW in James Dean territory has an impressive display of weaponry right by the side of the road.

 

[KokomoDave]

Very cool, it would have fooled me too.

It would make an interesting thread to show photos of all of the oddball military stuff you see here and there.

I was very surprised to discover that there is a 30 lb Parrott Rifle from the Civil War in a cemetery next to the Noblesville High School.

Doggone it! Was hoping it a cannon to shoot real parrots out of!!

I'd rather have this.


Lots of little and random towns have nice war memorabilia around Indiana.

Yes that one is impressive! If I remember correctly there is an F-4 Phantom jet, an M-48 tank, a UH-1 helicopter, and a large naval gun, possibly other things that I have forgotten.

Park In Downtown Middlebury has two of these.

Remember playing on them 60/65 years ago.

 

[KokomoDave]

Foster Park downtown Kokomo has a nice tank!
Grissom ARFB has a BUNCH of nice aircraft and weapons.

38th and Lafayette rd?

LOL WIN

 

[KoopaKGB]

Yeah. South Milford. I didn't know it was a prop. I've been told that it's been there since 1923. If it is a prop, I apologise for misleading anybody.

Looks better than I remember it, thanks.

Here is a pic...

That thing shoots very big boolits!

 

[Sylvain]

Not in Indiana but we have entire tanks exposed a bit everywhere around here.

 

[Sylvain]

(I know, not a tank)

No climbing.

My grandfather drove this tank(M4A3 Sherman) to its resting spot @ the St. Leon American Legion.
