Hi...
My son and I went to the Mid Atlantic Air Show yesterday in Reading, Pa.
Great show...lots of vintage aircraft, including three P51 Mustangs, a Dauntless, Cutlass, B17 , B29 and one of a very few flying Japanese Zero fighter planes.
Lots of ground vehicles including a couple of Sherman tanks, M3 halftracks, a German SdKfz 252 halftrack(probably a Hungarian OT 80, in reality) and two mocked ip Panzer IIIs on British FV432 chassis.
At least three WWII based battle reenactments, one of which matched the Panzers and Sherman tanks in a fun to watch scenario.
Spent a lot of time talking guns with some reenactors and watching a weapons demonstration of WWII weapons with blank cartridges.
One fascinating talk with a couple of guys that had a tripod mounted Vickers machine gun. First one of those I had ever seen up close and personal.
