World War 2 Weekend

There are only 7% of the population left who experienced the second world war. In order to preserve this time period we must find ways to expose future generations and one successful way is to hold the program in Reading Pennsylvania. Just some of the activities include a parade of military vehicles; reenactments of battles and skirmishes between the French Resistance, Allied and German troops around the battle-scarred French Village; over 1,700 WWII military and civilian re-enactors and dozens of combat and support units representing many nations;Pacific and European theaters offer Navy, Marine, and Army, encampments, British Commonwealth forces, German Wehrmacht and Luftwaffe camps, and more. As a guest said "This is one of the finest WW2 shows on the east coast. Plenty of re-enactors, vintage aircraft, WW2 veterans, big band music. If you close your eyes and let your imagination work, you'll be back in 1943."
