Well guys its pretty safe to say that we're ready to cross the start line with this one.
Dont forget to pack plenty of water given the nature of the site (even more so now its lush, green and *very* thick vegetation wise) and the time of year!
We'll be kicking off the social and tent set up around 7pm on the Friday.
If you can please bring a 'bloodstained' bandage or first field dressing to add to the look.
(oh and dont forget to charge your batteries!)
We've also got some guests from wwiireenacting magazine coming along to try out WWII airsoft so lets show the guys a cracking day!
"I think we are in rats' alley - Where the dead men lost their bones."
Wish you chaps all the best with this, wish I could come along but kids, etc means its a no go for me. It is however a fathers day treat (ok its the day before) for Che ... I believe thats fandanglos excuse now too seeing as I gave his Mrs that great get out clause
Looking forward to post event reports and pictures
I don't have any field dressings. Can somebody spot me one?
You must have a first aid kit at home you can pilfer a bandage from and slap some red stuff over? get the kids to be creative with the poster paints
I'm officially excited now...
"I think we are in rats' alley - Where the dead men lost their bones."
heh... I have a period dressing (thanks webby), but haven't got round to fake blood yet!
that's the excited dancing man, man.
I think I'll have one spare, I think? But I'll bring what I have.
i havent put faked blood on mine either ah well never mind
You just reminded me I need to do mine. And touch up the paint on my M38. And sew the eagle onto my new jump smock. And dirty it up as its far too shiney. And fix the EK2 ribbon on my fliegerbluse. I think thats it...
Gona have to do some dirtying up down there, the strips are far too shiney, which will please Sgt Heide's sniper Brigade.
Too late, we already know what you look like!

Right! I'm bringing Lipton's collection of disguise beards.
You'll all have to wear one then or we will just shoot the one with the beard.

Damn! Defeated again.
Well I think I am just about packed... Keep thinking I'm missing something...

Errrr, Heide's playing as a Yank isn't he?
Yeah but old habits die hard! There's also a LOT of K98's out there with BGS hops supplied by yours truly!
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!

Yup, this time it's Sturmbannführer Von Himmel's sniper brigade.
Yeah, I was referring to his brigade... But he is on the Yank side? hurrah.
Heide trained us, and showed us how to upgrade our guns. Now we will have to shoot him!
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
