Western Front Event in NE North Carolina

News: We are happy to announce that we have our new "link mod" working—our programmer out-did himself on making it!! The program allows YOU to add your link yourself, unlike the old "add-me form" we had. Please, go here and add your unit's link, if we don't have it. For that matter, you can update links too. We still have many of the old links up, as it is a process to do a lot of them. However, we will be working to update links as fast as possible-- soon, ALL the unit links and historical links will be done this way!!

No. The property being used for this event has not been used before. It is larger, and has future expansion available. It has some paths can be used by vehicles too. It is near Roanoke Rapids, NC, and is only 6 miles from I-95.

We have done some more updating, and are taking registrations. Reenactors get in for $15 if they sign up by January 21, 2010. It is $20 at the gate. Vehicle owners get in free, if they bring their vehicle of course. Hope to see y'all there!

We've done some work at the event site, put in bunkers, foxholes, and it is coming together and shaping up to be a great event. Hope to see everyone there!

Weather is looking great! The battlefield is ready, and all that awaits is to see if the americans have guts to step onto "german" soil. Grin

Seriously, the event is only a couple days away, and it's going to be fun.

Rhineland Battle was a great success thanks to all who attended. We will be making this an annual event, the same weekend time frame. It was great to see y'all there, and we are planning future improvements to the battlefield. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks again to Dudley and Gowen for leading the two forces. Loved having the halftrack! We have posted some pictures on the website, and plan to have this event again next year, so check the website when the new year swings around. We are also planning an event reenacting the airdrops of the Normandy invasion coming up on May 1, so check it out too!
