MILITARY VEHICLE CONSERVATION GROUP.

The Muckleburgh Collection

Contributed by Trevor STUBBERFIELD (52A)

The Muckleburgh Collection is located in Weybourne Camp, on the North Norfolk coast near Holt. Certainly not a museum, rather a collection of working, living memories. The photos were taken on a visit in September 2008 and show a few old friends amongst a collection of many more. Highly recommended.

A different paint colour but it brought back vivid memories of time spent with the L.A.D. R.E.M.E. attached to 38 Coy. RASC in Tripoli and the classic film Ice Cold In Alex, made with the help of the unit.
