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_...
These are links to Fort Benning:

Hope this helps.
