Military's Necessities





We return to the items needed by members of the military when far from home. They could be binoculars and flashlights, which would be obvious needs . . . or they could be polished soup ladles, equally needed to feed the troops. Here they shine in peaceful splendor.

Full Regalia




Some of the most impressive people at Military History Fest, of course, are in full uniform. But not all of the uniforms are as impressive as the ones these leaders were sporting.

Ladies' Day




While women are still not common in combat roles, several women enjoy the support roles they have in Re-enacting. Here we see two women at the Military History Fest last weekend. One is seen working at a desk, the second is posing for pictures movie-star style on a tank.

Faces




Within the life-sized dioramas and outside them, acting their parts or just visiting, the faces seen at the Military History Fest were of great interest and certainly the stars of the show.

Military History Fest




Military History Fest at Pheasant Run was a wonderful pictorial surprise. Set up for those interested in the topic, it mainly draws Re-Enactors, men and women who become experts in various historical campaigns and battles and who spend much of the summer in large or small demonstrations of their knowledge. All are most excellent for photographers. Here we see scenes as wide-spread as Valley Forge and Stalingrad.
