Exploring the "abandoned" tanks in the Brander forest by Aachen. The Brander forest is used by the German Bundeswehr as a military proving ground, and the tanks (often dubbed as a tank cemetery) were placed here as so called "Hartziele" - training/tactical targets for infantry units.
Currently four tanks can be found here - three M47 Patton tanks, one M41 Walker Bulldog tank, and one Schützenpanzer Lang HS.30.
