After the concluding ceremony was over, we decided to take a tour of the inside of the garrison for a while, as it was a big deal. First of all I jumped into my eyes as a main force even in the Chubu area74 TankThe figure of.


90 (kyumaru) type tank,10 (one person) type tankWhile the introduction of the project is in progress, still in the suburbs of Honshu including the Central Territory Corps is a major active vehicle.


It was said that it was sometimes called "the most beautiful tank", and it was a body line that was soft and somewhat soft, somewhat.


And it was the first domestically-produced tank after the war that was placed in a place somewhat away61 Type tankWhen,75 self-propelled 155 mm crown gun.


As the name suggests, 61 tanks are formally adopted tanks in 1961, and vehicles that have been used for about 40 years until 2000.


75 Formula 155 mm self-propelled gyroscope is similar to the appearance, but in reality it is not a tank but a member of a cannon. The trajectory of the shell is said to fly as if to draw a parabola, unlike the tank that headed straight to the target.


As I was walking on the premises, I could see the figure of a member who practiced "Rappi".


After having the vehicle show me, I went to the Lawson store which is operating on the premises.


The store name was "Lawson Self Defense Force Itami General Administration Department Store".


Alcohol was not put in the drink corner in the store at all, and thought "I am thoroughly done so as to prepare for emergency!" ....


As expected there was no such thing, in fact the alcohol section was set up at the next store.


Interestingly, this store handling sporting goods and bags.


Among the athletes are famous sportswear classesUNDER ARMOR(Under Armor), but moss green color things that I have not seen so much have been sold elsewhere.


And here is a camouflage color gift bag full of self-defense capabilities. It was a convenient dish that you can use it as a handkerchief after giving it to the opponent.


The inside of the garrison that you can not see easily can be touched at the garrison events (garrison festival) held in various places, so if you are interested, you may try to refer to the following schedule etc. .
