    Midwest's Largest WWII Reenactment, Rockford, IL Sept. 24-28

    That's great news! :eusa_clap It is way hot last year - and I felt for the men in wool. However, it was neat to see all the Willys MB's parked out front of the barn. Too bad we can't have a dance in front of a B-17 like in the "Memphis Belle" ;)

    Midwest's Largest WWII Reenactment, Rockford, IL Sept. 24-28

    Oh! I am the guy on the far left - half of me is cut off. But I saw that gal many times that night and marveled at her outfit. She was very pretty and authentic. I think she came with the sailor fellow in the picture. My fiance is hoping to pull off a similar look this year. I'll make...

    Midwest's Largest WWII Reenactment, Rockford, IL Sept. 24-28

    Everyone must go! I live in Rockford, and this is by far the best event in town. To those who have never been, Midway village is a staged 'village' of many vintage buildings and structures. In the 'village' portion the allies occupy each building and neighboring land in tents. Beyond the...
