Winnipeg's Military Museums and other POI

Hi ...

Geoff, I hope you don't mind that I started a thread to post military historical (especially WW2) interesting sites and things around Winnipeg, so others can knows whats here, while I learn whats here Too bad I don't have a difital camera and room on my hard drive to install its software... because I feel pretty "snap-happy" and would LOVE to take photos and show and tell

Example... tonite I visited, with my neice, Minto Armouries wherethe Royal Winnipeg Rifles Museum is located... I should have called first, I missed Don Zorniak by 3 minutes and didn't get to checkout the museum (it was closed tonite anyways ... but normally open Tues eves)

What a WONDERFUL OLD BUILDING its in! I'll search for a photo and site links online and post for youguys and gals.

Also, driving this evening I was blown away to see two huge tanks!!! They sit in front of Macgregor Armouries where The Fort Garry Horse cadets (orsomething?) train. I searched for a pic of the tanks... but just got the ANOTHER AWESOME OLD BUILDING and site below:
