This event will be a sight to see and fun to be involved with. Lots of vehicles already booked and if the main organisers can secure transport we will be bringing in the heavy armour as well. we thought last year was a cracking event but this year will not only blow the public away but the re-enactors too.
more to follow......

Could all re-enactors who have shown an interest in this event please contact me with full names and what uniform they are wearing. I need to put all attendees on a list and sort out who is 100% comitted to this event. Would like to finalise this before my season starts if possible.
Many thanks

Just to let everyone know that we are arranging for an original German field kitchen to be on the display, we will be cooking and feeding all the re-enactors on our display. The event is a bit out of the way so part of our budget will be used to buy all the food to keep us going all weekend. Its the least we can do for your support.....

Unless you have strange eating habits ie veggie or suchlike I will be supplying all the food. All you have to bring is yourself and some beer...

Latest news, The BBC will be at this event but sweeney will not be there, As per last year I have arranged regulations on all media so anyone doing the Axis forces does not get shown in a bad light. Rumours are flying about other special guests but these guest don`t publicise their schedules. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the event, it seems like its going to be something very special. Warning orders to follow...
