    Does anybody have any information/links/pictures of tanks or other vehicles (Universal Carriers, Tank Destroyers, aircraft/helicopters, trucks, artillery, etc.) captured by the North Koreans or Chinese during the Korean War? I know about the three Pershings with the crappy fan belts and the Chinese Cromwell knocked out by the British Centurion, but does anybody have any other stories/examples? Also, does anybody have any statistics about these sorts of things? I know that there is a museum in Pyongyang that has at least one captured Sherman, three Pershings (probably the fan belt ones), some artillery, a jeep, and a halftrack with quad-50s, anybody know what other captured equipment is there? Or if there are other museums like it in North Korea?

    Can't help with this one, I'm afraid.
