(NOTE: An interesting situation here guys with posting pictures. Even though I copied the location it won't bring up the picture. I believe it is that this software does not recognize the syntax of the address...specifically the use of the ampersand "&" in the picture url. If you want to post stuff up here don't use the & in the picture file name.)

Hi Bill,
The photo comes from this years War & Peace Show, some of the guys that we re-enact battles with (29th Infantry) had a small battle scenario in the corner of the re-enactment field and they gave a good performance of the 29th Infantry attacking and German gun emplacement, we where in the main battle in the afternoon, we came in as infantry after the main troops had gone in, there is a film from the Germen side of the battle, that you can just see us lot de-bussing from the halftracks in the distance. http://www.wwiireenacting.co.uk/forum/d ... hp?id=8067

Thanks for the info,

What are the Dragons teeth made out of?...I am assuming it is not Concrete because of weight.

How about the pill box?

I found a LCM that a constuction company has and I always wanted to build a small pond with a beach,them park my halftrack on the landing gate,be a great place to stage war games.

Hi bobc,
Your more than welcome to come over and stay at our Red Ball scenario at the next War and Peace ?, we need more drivers, to many trucks and not enough drivers.
