Visiting main Russian front battlefields?

[Za Rodinu]

Good Lord, a man from the Great Country. Please accept my hearty and belated welcome!

I come in this forum very rarely now as I am going under difficult personal circumstances, but the fact you are here is another incentive for me.

Again, be very welcome!

No, Miguel, he is from Russia, not Alabama.

One of the best museums & best websites is the tank museum located in Kubinka, Russia, which is about 25 miles west of Moscow. (just about the farthest place the Germans got to - coincidence?)

The website is Tank museum, Kubinka, Russia and it has lots of pictures, and is IN ENGLISH TOO! Most of the Russian museums have only Soviet made stuff, but this one has British, American & German as well. (and Canadian!)

Yes, yes and again yes! Kubinka is a great tank museum. To be honestly I'll be glad to visit it because i've heard a lot and viewed pics but never have been there Offcourse Kubinka is a biggest tank museum in Russia and as I know no other can be compared with it

Oh you have no idea how disappointed I was! Stuck in Moscow for a whole day on my way to Kiev, but I couldn't leave the airport without a visa! Maybe next time I will get to Kubinka...

I flew on Areoflot, Vancouver-Moscow-Kiev. I think they even have Valentine tanks in Kubinka, most of the Russian ones were built here in Canada. It seems that the Russian army liked the Valentine but not the Grant tank (coffin for 7 brothers!)

Yes true, but some are worse than others... If I had to be in a tank (or AFV) I'd rather be in this one.
