Went to TIGER DAY at the Tank Museum at Bovington. The museum contains the only working Tiger Tank in the world. Twice a year they fire it up and do a reenactment of its capture in North Africa. (More on the museum in an upcoming post.) I bought a premium ticket (100 sold) that results in “behind the scene” access and a chance to climb aboard the Tiger. (Alas, I didn’t win the Ride in the Tiger raffle.)
The movie “Fury” used this tank. It’s really the only movie to use a real Tiger tank. They also used the museum’s Sherman M4A2E8. It also was shown and driven about, video below.
