Here are some pictures of a reenactment that was held on my property earlier today. (Spoiler, the Americans win the war)

This is where the 7 Germans ambushed a 50+ man American convoy.

This was the first year they have done this so it was not as known to the reenacting community. So, The numbers were not as high as they could have been.
They are planning to use our property every year to hold their reenactments so they can only get better.

Nice! Man, it looked like there was about 50 there. That's still big #s.
-
That is awesome! Post more pics!
-
Not real good at reading the terrain though are they?
One Kraut machine gun nest at the top of the hill and they are all dead ;)

Haha, yea.
Sorry, that's all the pictures I have of now since my camera was being temperamental.

Of course. It doesn't look like the enemy showed up. :t
-
Is this for a film in production? Or just a local group? Nice shots!

Haha, yea, only 7 Germans were there. Just like the real thing, the Americans were late but had overwhelming numbers. :lol

Not for film but just a yearly reenactment our town has. That past few years they have only paraded through the streets. This was the first reenactment of an actual combat situation.
-
Very nice man. Seems like they put on a good show ;)
-
Good for you guys.... where are ya'll located, if youa re relatively close by, we can bring the M2A1 Halftrak, M3A1 Scout car, and our Sherman along....
You will have to sign a waiver if you allow the Sherman on property though ;)
-
The waiver consists of me being allowed to drive it. :aok
This is a group located in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania I believe. (PA tags in the pictures? Not sure)
I will let you know when I know for sure.

CO to PA is long drive for a lowboy to haul a Sherman. Let alone two other light armored vehicles. If things work well, I'd love to do it... but hell if you want to drive any of them, and are remotely qualified, come out some weekend here Colorado and we do it regularly. Ya just have to work on them too.... which does involve getting extremely dirty in the true sense of the word.

Cool pictures Fender :aok ooo ah sherman :O

I drove a Sherman a few times, got about 19 kills to my name this month. :P
I have thought about doing reenacting myself but lack of money has prevented me from doing so. Either 101st Air Borne or the British 1st Air Borne.
I plan on visiting CO next year during the Winter for a snowboarding trip so I'll have to stop by. :salute

Where you at in Maryland Fender?
-
Northern Frederick County. Town I live in is called Rocky Ridge.
-
Cool I go up to garret county to ski few times ah year! :rock

More than welcome. I'll pop you in the Sherman if you like, or we can just go tool around in the T-6... your call.

I'll give you all my fighter perks if you give me one of those Willy Jeeps!! :O MINE MINE MINE!!
