Nearly three years after the Fort Meade Museum closed a contractor team moved a M-3A1 Light Tank from the vacated building April 18-19, 2022. M-3A1 Light Tanks were used in the early years of WW-II by U.S. tankers in the Pacific Theater, North Africa, Sicily, and Italy. This specific tank remained stateside to train soldiers, who fought on other American tanks during the War. The M3A1 and a Liberty Mark VIII, which was also removed from the museum, will become part of the U.S. Army Armor & Calvary collection housed in the Armor Training Support Facility at Fort Benning, Georgia.
