Transcription de la présentation

  1. WWII CONVOY WWII Convoy Netherlands, 2012 Netherlands,2012

  2. Goals • Travel the route of the 7th Armored Division • Full-on authenticity • Re-dedicate monuments • Ceremonies • Skirmishes

  3. Convoy Make-up 40+ vehicles 2 Shermans 110+ re-enactors

  4. Sleeping Arrangements • Pup tents • Bashers (lean-to off a vehicle) • Fox holes

  5. Food • Plentiful breakfast and dinner • Lunch on the run as we pass through town. It usually gets skipped though as we’re constantly on the move.

  6. Authentic Rations

  7. Chow Line

  8. And Authentic Cook Charm

  9. German Cemetery Commemoration

  10. Ceremony

  11. Skirmishes

  12. Museums

  13. Patrol in Assault Boats • Pre dawn… • In the rain… • Yeah, it sucked.

  14. And it was the best of times!

  15. Expect to ride in open vehicles

  16. And be cold and wet

  17. It’s not all work…we hit the bars

  18. And made new friends

  19. Costs • USD $650 to the convoy to cover food and fuel costs • USD $1500 for plane ticket. • Incidental purchases, such as trains to the rally point, ferry, bar tab, and souvenirs. • Garands are for rent for €150, about $200. • Figure $2500 to $3000 total.

  20. Kit • Due to space limitations, each man is allowed one duffle bag. You don’t want to schlep more than that through the airport anyway. • Convoy will have a very specific list of what gear to bring so you exactly match the unit being portrayed. • Your usual unit and rank are left at home. You’ll be a private unless otherwise assigned.

  21. Intercontinental Cooperation • No guarantees, but we’re working to see if most of the sleeping gear can be provided for the Americans so we don’t have to bring it through the airport. We hope to have trucks, drivers, and bashers assigned to our section.

  22. 2014 Details • Ten day trip through France into Belgium to commemorate the 70th anniversary. [Edit: trip has been increased to 10 – 12 days.] • Over 100 vehicles on convoy. Fifteen tanks and twenty halftracks have already signed on. • Would like 400+ re-enactors, including at least 75 Americans. [Edit: 70 people have signed on as of January, 2013.]

  23. You can expect to be cold, wet, hungry, and sleep deprived. • And expect to make new friends and have the time of your life! • This is an experience you can’t get anywhere else. Expectations
