Yes that isn't that uncommon. Hell us in the 12th SS just bought a SdKfz 251/D Halftrack, and the 1st Infantry just got a GMC CCKW 2 1/2 ton Troop carrier. Our sister unit to our south, in California, just bought several german tanks from the army of Syria, who bought them as surplus after the war. They will have a complete armoured column, with a possible 4 (!) Panzer IV's and 3 StuG III's! We are in the process of restoring a '38 Ford truck (see the Z28 topic) as a light troop carrier for the 12th, and I am looking into geting a Kublewagen by the end of next year. The russian unit in Califonia has a T-34/85 battle tank and the british unit down there has a bren carrier.
There are lots of clubs around the world opperating with a multitude or armoured and soft vehicles.
