Upcomming events
An event looking at the important actions of Operation Cobra, the American attempt to break out of Normandy.
A pleasant site near Bury St Edmands there is a good bit of space and a restored control Tower which has a museum inside.
Expect lots of Olive Drab, a good covering of Pinks and Greens [with and without ponytails] and more Majors and chicken wearers than you can shake a stick at.
Lots of opertunities to discuss the exact shade of khaki and the size of the hole in your helmet net.
There are plans to start a USAAF group for re-enactors, some of the ground work may get done here.
