Jacques Littlefield was well-known and well-regarded throughout the HMV collector's hobby. He amassed a very impressive collection of tank and armor, forming the core of the Military Vehicle Technology Foundation in the foothills of Portola Village, CA. After his passing in 2009, the foundation sought to place the collection with a museum, so it could be better accessed by the public. Their search culminated with an agreement to integrate the collection into the Collings Foundation of Stow, MA.
