MOVE OVER MARILYN!
In 1954, at the time of the Korean War, the glamorous film star Marilyn Monroe stepped from an
aircraft to embark on a tour of the US Army bases to entertain the troops. Sixty-two years later, this
event was recreated at the 2016 Tankfest, hosted by the Tank Museum at Bovington in Dorset, when
n
the equally glamorous Miss Marina Mae entertained visitors with her tribute act to the star. We at
CMV
were delighted when she accepted our invitation to pose exclusively for us (as snapped by
c
regular contributor John Norris), just as we know the late, great Marilyn herself would have done.
Check out our full Tankfest report this issue on pages 56-63.
