Here are some photos from the NZ Army Museum at Waiouru in the central North Island of New Zealand, which I
visited recently. The Museum covers NZ's involvement in the Maori Wars, the Boer War, WWI, WWII, Korea, Malaysia, Vietnam
and more recent endeavours including Afghanistan.
There is an impressive range of historic items on display, attractive dioramas, and quite a few AFVs. Well worth a stop
if you are driving between Auckland and Wellington.
