A Trip Back to World War II

Weather permitting, I am planning on driving to Rockford, Illinois, about fifty miles west. Midway Village, on the north side, is having a World War II encampment with an estimated 800 re-enactors as well as tanks and vehicles on both Saturday and Sunday.

It costs $10 for adults and runs from 10 am to 5 pm.

Besides doing all the World War II entries in this blog, I am presently reading a boof about the kamikaze attack on the USS Bunker Hill.

This past week, I saw movies on the war on AMC: "Defiance," "U-571" and "Force 10 From Navaronne."
