This reminds me of a photo I came across many years ago of WWII German Luftwaffe jets sitting in a Canadian scrap yard. US and Canada had finished testing them after the war and they were all sold for scrap. Seemed like there were dozens of the different types. |

It's Kinnebrew Motors in Tallahassee, FLa. Here's a shot from the other side of the lot, based on the vehicles I think this one was taken a few years later.
