Howdy! Mike,

I'm glad Joe didn't take my suggestion for a side-trip to Fort Knox.

 Last time I was at the Museum was in the late 1960's.

I remember seeing German Tanks there too.

Note: I had a Reply already written to You but MultiMail DOS didn't save
the REP so I'm writing it again.

These are the URL's I had in the first message:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Knox

https://www.knox.army.mil/

On that page is an article about the Base open to the public at 5 PM on
July 4, 2019.

The page has links on the right side of the page to:

Fort Knox Installation Access Control 
&
ID Requirements for Entering Fort Knox

There is a Link to The Patton Museum at Fort Knox on this page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_George_S._Patton_Memorial_Museum

These are links to Fort Benning:

Hope this helps.
