ArtistsRifles Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Looks interesting - as the Bash is cancelled this year I can delay taxing the FFR for a month and attend here...... Sadly the transport costs for the OT mean that will have to stay in it's store... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 We are now flat out preparing the vehicles for Military Revival. The arena program is all planned . The media partnership with the Eastern Daily press has boosted advanced ticket sales ( just hope the car park is big enough ! ). We are going to have nearly 50 of the museums vehicles and out of storage and on display, many of the being demonstrated in the arena. here are some images of a few of the vehicles and kit being prepared .

We appear to have a bit of a last minute rush on booking in ( that's not a problem by any means as it is a large site and we have a reserve field ).

shaun Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 Next up 1938 Morris Quad, limber and 1940 25 Pdr . All washed , repaired and running . Now for a fresh coat of paint. This is just one of our 25pdrs we have. One of the others will be maned and demonstrated by our resident former Artillery officer now 84 years of age) At the show . He has made some brilliant training aids to demonstrate the operation and sighting of a field gun - an amazing chap and well worth meeting if you have the slightest interest in field artillery .

shaun Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 The quad ,limber and 25pdr have been painted in Sicily campaign colours . Just the markings to apply . The 25pdr is operational again, so we will probably be making so loud bangs with at Military Revival, they are a nice size piece of kit . Well done team !

sim60 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I am coming to the show, unfortunately doesn't look like the dodge is going to be coming, so will be coming on one of the bikes(both are green lol), to get to my point does it have to be military style tents with the vehicles or can I bring my civvy tent as it`s a lot easier to carry and lighter than my pup tents.As the 9x9 was the plan but that looks like not happening. Thanks for reading my ramble and if somebody could let me know that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
