Hello folks,
I've just returned from a re-enactment event here in Holland. The 2 day event was called 'The Island' and focussed on the period shortly after the failure of operation Market Ggarden. There was a complete historical campsite with American, British and German troops, several mock battles and more. A perfect upportunity for my group of fellow model builders and collectors to setup a large display with many static vehicles and RC Armortek tanks.
This was also the perfect venue to setup a display with the complete HGB bridge (20 feet/6 meters) I bought back in 2014. Offcourse the HGB bridge is a post-war successor of the famous Bailey Bridge so it's not complete 'period correct' but 99,9% of the visitors do not posess that level of knowledge...
We received a lot of attention and compliments so it was a good day promoting our hobby. And the weather was also very nice!
I hope you enjoy the pictures!
