Saturday was a good day for trip to Renniger's just to see what's there, and this time there was a WWII reenactment going on. Most of the activity was ear-deafening booms and billowing smoke.
What was causing all that smoke and noise? These things! Mighty tanks, carefully maintained so they still move and fire. Several rolled onto the field to fire (blanks) at troops and smaller guns. How awful it would have been to see this coming at you for real.
Across the dirt road there were tables and tents set up to sell all kinds of parts and memorabilia. I have been remodeling the house but WWII stuff won't fit in, so I wasn't tempted.
It's interesting to see the carefully restored items, though. This 1943 M15 Halftrack is in great shape.
Doesn't look very comfortable, but that wouldn't have been a major concern at the time.
