Wow, what an amazingly atmospheric weekend! 🤯🥶
 
We hope you have all made it home safely!
 
Its safe to say that we are really excited to see Tom & Pats photos and video clips!
 
The Jack's Wood (Bois Jacques) event from Frontline Events Ltd, at StrikeForce Airsoft, The Trail, was an absolute experience! Everything from the weather to the players, including the epic loadouts in most instances!
 
We know its not 100% realistic (it is airsoft), but we hope that we have given you a small slice of how difficult life must have been for soldiers during the the cold winters.
You all deserve a huge well done for the effort you put in, the freezing weather and the woods are challenging with undulating terrain which is difficult under foot.
Again, as always, I have seen some of the best team work in airsoft this weekend and lots of respect amongst the players. We were, as usual, blown away by the level of your loadouts, it is getting better and better! The sky is the limit as a community! Well done to you all!
 
Without eachother we wouldnt be able to run the games or even get out of the door. These communities are becoming a family and we are beginning now to look after eachother. Get your friends added and help us grow!
 
Please keep up the good work and great attitudes. 🙂
 
The next game is the Stalingrad 2 - Technical Inst.!
 
See you all there!

While we are still hyped and excited from the weekend, we couldnt help but notice these few moments captured by Jaggardos Airsoft Photography at the Jack's Wood - WW2 Airsoft Event...
 
The few photos really bring home those harsh realities of war. And while we are only reenacting battles, we should not forget the suffering of young men and women through all conflicts.
 
Please spare a moment of your time this evening, to remember the fallen.

That looks fabulous, really sorry to have missed it. I hope to make to the January game, but my knee is still wrecked so I'll have see how it heals up in the next few weeks.

Dates:
9, 10, 11th January 2022

Location:
Strike Force, The Trail, SN4 7QR
Story:
After the huge failing in the Hurtgen forest where the Americans stumbled into Heersgruppe B’s staging area, for a large counter offensive, the Americans are now dug in deep. Desperately Short on morale and supplies the Yankees sit and wait in the shadow of one last German offensive.
16 December 1944. Heersgruppe B charges across the foggy Belgian border into the Ardennes on an axis headed straight for Antwerp! A Swift and bold attack to hinder the allies on the Western Front.
The 101st Airborne Division, with no air support due to the fog hold out on the line and hope that the weather changes! In the dead of winter, the men of Easy Company fend off frostbite and hunger - in addition to the enemy - while holding the line in a forest outside of Bastogne.
Objectives:
• PATROL – Easy COY, 506th, 101AB send out reconnaissance patrols into the local area in order to establish where German lines are located. Then Proceed with Fighting patrols to clear Local AO of any German Resistance.
• HOLD – Easy COY, 506th, 101AB must hold the defensive lines and counter attack if needed. The Germans must not get through! The Staging Area must remain protected!
