Aloha philippe
Wie geht es dir? I loved Switzerland so much I'm learning German so I can go back.
Actually they were very liberal about letting us walk around the base, as soon as the soldier escorted us to the tanks he was gone. They did hold our passports at the gate but we could have walked around the base and no one would have cared.
By the way if you make it south there is a good artillery museum at Chateu de Morges on Lake Geneva. They have a miniature museum on the second floor and an artillery museum in the basement, complete with many 1/9th scale military vehicle models (man if they only made them for G.I. Joes when I was a kid!)
Thanks for your direction Philipe, It made my trip just that more adventurous. By the way I noticed that in Thun the most popular restaurant is McDonalds! Tell your people we don't even eat there that much.
By the way I have the best wife; she was with me and let me wander around a Swiss Army base and look at tanks in the rain. I did notice a Hooters Restaurant just outside the base as well, I asked my wife if we could go and she said she was a good wife but not that good of a wife!
Shonen Gruss zu Hause
Aloha
