Nice to meet you ripndip, welcome aboard! Feel free to ask questions and look around. Lots of smart and helpful folks around here.
howdy, welcome to the forum. you have come to a good place to learn about the war.as you say that you have started to collect some stuff, i would suggest that you get some good reference books.
well i went to the reenactment which was really awesome they had 3 or 4 tanks and a half track on the american side and some airplanes on the Germans side they had 2 88's a fieseler storch a couple thanks and a half when all the artillery was going of it was crazy and they rigged the tanks with smoke grenades or something because as the 88's would go off the tanks would go up in a puff of smoke it was awesome another cool thing was they had some veteran tell some stories about the war and one of them was a medal of honor recipient the story he told about how he got the medal was crazy another cool thing that they do is if u have enough money u can get a ride in the planes they have there.
