Hi All, I found that "You Tube" vid to be most infomative!,Thanks PD for putting it up on the forum, I think its great that there are places for WW2 hysterical reenactments to occur.
The guy with the MP40 reloading looks like he is in dificulties though, do they have St John Ambulance nearby in case of injury or accidents like having you ears blown off from the guy RIGHT behind you firing away over your head?. Cheers Pete :lol:

I am quite intrigued as to why the Brit para bothers to drag a "Dead" kraut off the platform then proceeds to kill him again?.Watching too much Where Eagles Dare? or maybe did not buy his round the night before?. Pete :roll:
