2016 Linden, TN WW2 Reenactment





It was a fun event, but very hot. The whole town really gets into and supports this.  One of the highlights for me was meeting  a bombardier from a B-24. He had on one of those "WWII Veteran" caps. Then I noticed he had the names of three different Stalags (German POW camps) embroidered on the back. When I inquired he told the tale and was quite humorous about certain aspects of his ordeal. He was one of a very large group of veterans that the event organizer had bused in for special VIP treatment at the event.
