That looks like a pretty cool museum. I mean the next best thing to pachinkos is most likely TANKS! Thanks for sharing these pictures TTC.

Strange to me that the Army would have a field phonograph.
i wonder what it was used for?
i wonder if some soldier actually had to lug those around in combat?

To listen to V-Discs that USO in Hollywood made for the guys . The Phonograph is clockwork powered and is the old needle / reproducer not needing power to amplify the sound The portable weighs about 8 Lbs same weigh as a M1 rifle
