This year’s Festival of History at Kelmarsh Hall, Northamptonshire ….
Yes there were table top games (Flames of War, I think) .. but the real attraction for WW2 enthusiasts has to be the enormous collection of restored (and working) vehicles
… and the opportunity to photograph them. So here’s a selection …
Some British
Oh – go on then, these are classics (let’s have another view) ..
Some Americans
There were some excellent motorcycles …
Including one of the coolest 2 wheelers ever conceived …
The Harley with Tommy gun holster on the forks.
And, not least
The Chris Kemp (or is that Kempf?) Late War Armoured Division …
Plenty of weapons on display .. of which I photographed this time …
I was also quite impressed by the Soviet Guards Rifle Division (well a section of them anyway) …
… not to mention the essential transport components
Great stuff.
Lots of period detail for modellers and enthusiasts. No French equipment, though – which would have been useful for my Vichy contingents …
Ground attack?
How about this picture by Chris Ager?
Chris also caught these Boer irregulars celebrating a successful mission …
A rare item from the very start of the 20th Century – with which I tagged theses not quite modern wargame pages.
Curses! Are none of my plans secret?
