Website - wwiiafterwwii, WWII equipment used after the war

[StainlessSteelCynic]

An interesting website that I found easily kept me occupied for an entire morning with the range of topics it covers. It's a blog devoted to WW2 equipment that continued in military use after the war but also has a few items of Cold War era equipment being highlighted due to some interesting facet or other.
For example, there's this image from the page titled Urgent Fury 1983: WWII weapons encountered, I'm sure people here can find a use for it

Main page for the blog is here https://wwiiafterwwii.wordpress.com/
There are numerous tags to make searching a little easier and I found it holds a lot of images that can fit into the T2k theme, like the following image of Austrian tanks.

I was pretty sure people here would find it interesting
There's so many little facts that can be dug up on the site that would add to a T2k game. For instance that page for Austria mentions that the T-34/85 tanks they were given were allocated to the reserve in 1959 and during the 1960s, some had the turrets removed and the turrets where then used for pillboxes which were maintained until 2000.

It doesn't say where those T-34 pillboxes where but it's probably a safe bet to say they were most likely facing the Czechoslovak border and maybe the Hungarian (although as I understand it, the Austrians and Hungarians never enforced their border to the extent the Soviets wanted the Hungarians to).
Until reading the site I wasn't aware that Austria had ever had the T-34 in service.

Hey Ewan that was an interesting read, thanks for posting it. Where did you find it because it seems like it's from a militaria magazine (and I'd be interested in finding out more about the magazine)?
