D-day reenactment 1 0f 4 (encampment)

the excitement has been building for me and today it is finally here..the D-Day reenactment on the beaches of Conneaut, Ohio, my home town for the first 30 years of my life.
i will be posting different aspects of the 2 day events.  i have been told that the Lake Erie beaches of Township Park, are uncannily similar to Omaha Beach.


today the encampments were setting up, in preparation for the battles to come.
there were allied camps and axis camps.  later in the day, german vehicles pass in review, and the Road to Victory battle.
i was surprised to learn that in these reenactments, the small battles are won by whichever side grabs the flag!  so, there is excitement...who will win the battle?
