Default Military History Day

Hi Everyone

I am planning a military histiory day on Sept.18/10 at the Brechin Legion. I am looking for anyone who can bring their military vehicles to show. There is no charge and there has not been anything like this in my area before. I am trying to get as many displays as possible to keep the public busy. I am still working out details and will post them as time draws nearer.

Thank you
Carl

Hi Carl

Would probably help if you'd say where the Brechin Legion is UK, France, Canada??? This is a very international forum with members spread all over the world.

Greetings from Switzerland
Chris

Default I'm with you on this chris -

- this is a site for real names and locations.

I'm not talking about addresses here, but when you check someone's personal profile it should at leas name a town and enough info to identify a country....

new rule, moderator?

Hi Phil

You guys were on my list to contact. If we can't get the vehicles there would you like to put on a display anyway. It would be good advertising for the museum.

Default info

Hi
The event will run from 10am till 4pm. I have permission from the legion to stay over night for those who want to come and set up the night before. Breakfast will be provided for those who stay over and lunch for all participants(people who bring vehicles and or dislpay). I have access to some tents to put the vehicles in for those who might want one. Please let me know sooner than later if you do. If you have any questions please let me know. This event will cover all eras of military history as well as all countries. We are not charging the public for entry to try and get as many people as possilble. I would like to get as many vehicles and dispaly items as possible to make it a good show for all.

Thank you
Carl
