The 274 looked brand new, I don't know if he restored it or bought it from surplus. I just wish he'd put the information in front of it instead of on it. It's a little hard to see the 60 and all the ammo boxes that he had on it. The 3/4 looked new, too, as did some of the Jeeps. I'd planned on taking more pictures but once our flight got canceled my wife wanted to head home and get the dog out of the kennel. They had displays of various rations over the years, weapons, (2 of the Jeeps had rifle scabbards, with rifles, and one had a rig I'd never even heard of. It was a medal holder that was attached to the dashboard and the rifle was inserted up into it. It had a quick release lever to free it either to the driver or front seat passenger. It was well worth the $15 we didn't spend to see it. We got in free since we had booked a flight. Whole day cost us nothing.

BTW, the 17 was taxiing behind the 3/4, you just can't tell that the props are turning.
