On guard duty. Ah sh!t i cant say anything bout nazi's now

Haha you have come over to the dark side.........

I'm surprised how many airsofters on here wanted to be Germans, and kudos to Gatling who went full on Nazi complete with the death head.

Well done and thanks to those who jumped in with the re enactment the help was apprecited.

Lol..looking at the 101st Airborne...the guys have put the crisp new suits on straight out of the Re-Enactors shop...no thought given to aging them or making them look battle ready...I hate lazy re-enactors!(or ones that don't want to get the outfits mucky)

great show and great people as always lawrence thermes comes up smelling of roses , the mans a genius and never fails to entertain the crowd, improvising with ww1 germans to do the battle............ volkstrum at its best ... will be there next year with several germans to help the lads out.. thank you the stall holders they had great bargins and i got some brill stuff but then the organisers only let quality into the show this year. <Snip> no need for negetive responces.

I was there with my uncle on the sunday. My impressions:

-Disappointed that there was no romans or Brandenburg commandos as advertised.

-static vehicle displays very impressive, 2 land rovers were awesome but imho the Irish army merc was just something so unique I couldnt get over it (if anyone has pics of it it would be much appreciated if you could put them up)

-vehicle demonstrations were awesome and i loved the fact that you could talk with the drivers and owners after the demonstration.

- I saw the 'SAS' show, very disappointing.
The ww1 re en actors were excellent, very interesting and you could see that they all enjoyed it and were interested in what they were doing.
WW2 battle was just pure fun

-weapons throughout the ages was quite interesting too esp the pre-firearms displays.

-shops and stands i think i picked the wrong day to go.

Overall I do believe id go back but on a Saturday.

I hope to do a big thank-you post tomorrow, I just need to make sure all the names are correct. But we need to mention our sponsors HRTA, MIA, SE Airsoft and especially the IMVG – without them nothing would have been possible.

We used approximately 57,500 BBs at the range.

I haven't even unpacked yet
