WWII days - Part 1





The 17th annual WWII Days at Midway Village Museum recently took place and I was fortunate to attend.  It has over 1,000 re-enactors representing the United States, Great Britain, Germany, Poland, France, Japan, Italy, Russia and the Ukraine. They use a variety of  uniforms, 1940's attire, vehicles, posters, and maps to inform you of every detail. The town & the back woods are used to demonstrate certain battles and each camp has been set up to represent each of the countries involved. The participants are always ready to answer any question you may have and will demonstrate any props they may be using. This is one of the largest re-enactments and it should not be missed.
