Hello,

This was a fantastic show and WW2 History re-enactment !
With 5 active WW2 Tanks there, with live firing of blanks, quite impressive and loud.
Churning up the grounds, driving all around , I thank and commend the owner of the tanks, and his group for bringing them there again !!
Not to mention all the plentiful .50 caliber firing going on, leaving many, many, shell casings on the ground for the kids to pick up as souvenirs
:D :D :D
As well as grease gun and other full auto firing demonstrations.
Many vehicles, Dodges, Jeeps, CCKW's, Halftracks, and M series trucks as well. A good spread.
Even had a German historical contingent there in full uniforms, and some French as well.

Walked around on Friday morning. A real nice display of vehicles, including armor. I saw a good number of MVPA members that I know, as well as a few vendors I know. A good number of Humvee parts including some large body parts. Daryl Bensinger was down from PA and enjoying the warm weather as well! I had a great time, not a bad show at all. Paul
