Some fantastic machinery and memorabilia up for sale there, shame to see it being disbanded and I agree with Daran, it would be great to see some (or all) of it placed into British museums?
Some great reference photos in that article too (which have been duly saved), so thanks for posting this Tom, much appreciated!!

Yeah, I would have thought so and it would be the ideal place to display them too. I suspect a fair bit of the smaller memorabilia, such as helmets, uniforms and other kit will be snapped up by commercial dealers in WWII memorabilia, though an individual might get lucky? Would love to have a skip load of cash to buy some of it!!
