Yes its hard work but it makes it all worth while when you get good feedback from veterans and the public

Looking forward to it already, can't wait

Thanks for posting, that must of been the Charity event at the British Queen Public House ??? Think I got some funny looks from other road users

Actually two of the pallets have real rounds on and two dont. The same goes for in and around the trailer, about half and half. My bad back will confirm this as like you say the real ones are bloomin' heavy and I set them up every day and put them away every night. I also have more inert ones at home so I can mix and match.

Now thats sounds like a lot of hard work especially with the heat as well. I expect the idea of moving Chemical shells around in the back of a warrior upset the crew even more than HE rounds. Your braver then me, I'll stick to my inert rounds thanks. I'll check the youtube link out Regards

Your close, lets say your half correct

Doesn't sound like my kind of fun either

i was lucky really, A contact I have found 14 of them in Belguim, then some were brought at military fairs over time. I'll let you into a little secret, not all of them are real, i had some made out of fibreglass, I bet you cant tell which ones

Yes that sounds about right, think you did a few mock battles on your pitch and if i remember there was alot of poking around under the engine cover on the OT on one of the days ???

I did plan on doing that at War and Peace 2012 but the mud and poor weather put a stop to that. Will try again

You never know who's lurking around at the shows, I expect we passed each other a few times at War and Peace

Must be my old steam powered computer as its all ok on this one thats only a year old. thanks for your help guys

Thank you all for the kind words. I did ask my friends to do it if i payed them in Beer, the trouble is they would drink too much beer and fall over

Hi All, Over the years I expect you have all seen my Wanted Adverts for 155mm Howitzer items as well as general Artillery equipment? Well I thought it was time for you to see what I do with all the stuff I collect. Please see below some photos from my Vietnam Artillery Display held at the 2012 War and Peace Show. This years display was dedicated to Mr Larry tesh of The 1/92nd Field Artillery who served during the Vietnam War. The unit sign in the photos is copied from one of his orignal photographs taken at Fort Bragg, North Carolina the year before he was deployed to Vietnam. I hope you enjoy them As always I'm still on the look out for anything related to the US 155mm Howitzer to make my displays bigger and better. These items can be tools, canvas items, equipment, cleaning brushes etc etc. Do any of our members know any Artillery dealers or have items for sale themselves ??? They can be from WW2 , Korea and Vietnam Thank you

Ok Thanks, I'll try another computer, it only happens on the preview page but goes black when you click submit. its also on the heading Reply to Thread and the bit on the front page about this month donations, posting permissions etc. I'll see what the other computer comes up with. Thanks

Thats great thank you for the confirmation. Is there anyway of changing this light green writing as its hard to read ???

test message due to unable to see text in preview window as it a rubbish green colour and hard to read, can this be changed ???

Hi, Can someone tell me the measurements for the WW2 German front Mudguard plate and the rear number plates on a Motorcycle and sidecar please. Thank you

Veterans of the 129th AHC are re-united with a UK owned Huey 509 that flew with their unit from July 72 until October 73.

Glad I could be of service

Can someone ID this canvas cover ???? Thanks

Yes it was a really good show and to be honest the actual show still isnt to bad, the organisers wife is the biggest problem, i don't know a single MV owner who hasnt fallen out with her, she makes a real habbit of upseting everyone. A real shame as I live only 3 miles away from it, Ive stopped going now
