Beltring 2006 Photos

 

Das Heer displayed at Beltring on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday . For the second year we put on a display inside the Hop Farm itself, not far from the entrance.. This meant that we were the first group that the public saw. The display consisted of a layout of our weapons and equipment plus other items that a German soldier would have carried, to the rear were our zeltbahns. For most of the day the public crowded along the display line and we were kept very busy explaining about the weapons, equipment and uniforms. At the end of the day many people stopped on their way out. We made many new friends and contacts. Despite being low on numbers  it was another successful event for Das Heer.
