Armour exposition on the Prokhorovka field. (Final post)





PS: does this posts looks like flood
PPS: if someone needs some of this pics in full size - pls tell me I'll be glad to share

 

Have to say very sad thing that funkyimg.com where I have hosted most of my pics is temporarily down because of some child porn abuse (damn that god damn bastards who used it for such shit), police is doing investigation on it and as soon as they finished probably pics will show up..

PS: this server is hosted in UK, BTW.

PPS: wow. 666th post.. scarrryyy..

 

Yes, shame about the images - this is one of the best of all time threads on this forum, IMHO!

And that case is showing to me that I need at least a mirror for those pics. Not long ago I finally got 512kbit internet at home and laptop (hey it's DELL Inspiron, very good choice for 1000 euros here) in addition to home PC so I'm probably gonna make a mirror for this thread's pics in nearest future.

 

Alex,
Well Done on the 666 posts.
Shame about the funkyimg.com problem.
Hope it is sorted out soon.

Police said nothing good about that case (as I stay in contact with administration of this site), also they didn't say officially that they will return server with pics , but we all (because that site is mostly used by users of funkysouls.com forum, so I am one of 'em) crossed our fingaz for funkyimg.

 

Amazing news!! There will be museum of Battle of Prokhorovka, there alongside the Belltower.
On the 12th of july its porject pics showed to governer of Belgorod area. U can see it here:

 

Has anyone ever been on any battlefield tours in Eastern Europe or Russia? I have been to the Museum of Independance in Riga, Latvia and found it facsinating. Also been to various monuments in around Sofia Bulgaria, all of which are being left to Ruin. Romania, have removed any thing related to the War but their is plenty relating to the December uprising. Have also done Moscow and St petersburg.

Im visting Minsk & Warsaw in October, and then Ukraine next October so will see what there is nearer the time.

Paul, feel free to put a link to your website. Not everyone will know about it.

 

phil be sure to check out the uprising museum in warsaw,its excellent

 

The Ghetto is the main reason for visiting, as after Warsaw, we are travelling to Krakow, and visiting Auschwitz.

Maybe another Album post this trip

 

Hehe . Personally I welcome everyone here - so its only a matter of visa to reach my location and see Kursk's Battle field and everything around it. As long as I am living in my town - I am ready to guide ya

EDIT: will wait before Paul spot his website himself although i know it

EDIT2: damn, need to do BIG amount of job restoring all my photo tours...

Alex if you could that would be brilliant. It is an extremely interesting and informative piece of work that you did and would be a real loss to the forum if your battlefield tours werent back up!!

Yes, I have them backed up (thanx god, because I had one HDD file system crash already, and restored at least half of my foto archive from work PC, thnx for that PC - its undestructible ) but this amount of job scares me really
