You can still "Visit" Chilean Battleship Almirante Latorre

When Almirante Latorre was scrapped in Japan in 1959, parts of her bridge instruments were put on Battleship Mikasa, as Mikasa was heavily damaged and in a poor state following WW2. Notice how the instruments all have Chilean on them, despite it being a Japanese Battleship.

I think there is something wrong with my sherman

In 1945, Adolf Hitler ordered the creation of new tanks in order to defeat the Soviet Union. These tanks were created from whatever resources were available outfitted with the best technology and sent on to the battlefield. Herman goring demanded not to be left out and created some special one-off vehicles as well. These vehicles were highly successful during world war II.
