Aachen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
Travel to the unknown
Look at this combination - such a nice young lady in her sexy outfit came to visit the dead old killing machine.
An old M41 bulldog and a M47 Patton are in the middle of a wide green area, inviting you for a nice walk and some climbing.
This story is since a long time in my mind and today, late December 2019, I found the time to write it into a long post with a nice mix of pictures and facts.
The Tanks
There are in total 5 dead old tanks hanging around at this area.

5 Tanks waiting for your visit
This tank was nearly drifting into the little pond and at my next visit, they moved it out of that.
My statement to this place
It is worth to visit this place as the whole thing is in somewhat bizarre and as well strange.
I'm not a military fan at all, but this old rusty and dead tanks in the green is really something worth to see!

A short video
At Youtube I found this little video from an account called Aachen erleben which describes that this tanks belong before to the German army.
More views from the Sexy lady
As I don't want to show her face (by GDPR) here another view to her shoes.

Some views to the details
Ok, this engine had his best days some years ago and I guess many screws are missing and the oil might be gone as well.
For people who know this a bit better as I do, this numbers may speak some facts from history
Where is this place
There is an old military area and this is the home of some old and dead killing machines or with other words a [tank graveyard near Aachen Germany M41 Walker Bulldog and M 47 Patton](http://(https://steemit.com/photography/@herrleger/tank-graveyard-near-aachen-m41-walker-bulldog-and-m-47-patton) as the Steemian @herrleger told us already back in 2017 here on the blockchain.

A nice walk
Even if you see here mainly the deal old tanks, this visit is a really nice walk for around 10km in a very green area.
We did this with a group of 8 people for around 3 hours and the kids had so much fun climbing all the dead old machines
Play hide and seek
As this area is an old military area, you see many strange buildings. Some of them are good to play a hide'n'seek and this makes the long walk even a bit more short.
