Short Description of Event
|
| |
National historic WWII Reenactment Society is recreating 3 WWII battles, including tanks, half tracks, and other German & American armored vehicles. Paratroopers will jump into the battle from vintage DC-3 aircraft. Warbirds will fly over the battlefield simulating aerial attacks complete with explosions and small arms fire from the reenactors. Following the reenactments each day will be a 3 to 3 1/2 hour airshow featuring skydivers, aerobatic performers, and plenty of very rare WWII aircraft, including Corsair fighter bombers, P-51 Mustangs, T6's, a Skyraider, and others. Each day will be different so spectators will want to come both days.
