gwb123 Posted July 7, 2014 Share #1 Posted July 7, 2014 Thanks to WALTZ41 for the thread he posted on the aircraft from the Reading WWII Weekend which occurred in Pennsylvania last month. My brother attends this event on a regular basis so I thought I would share some of his photos. To start, the control tower at Henderson Field, along with some 25th ID displays.

But there were plenty of soft skin vehicles... including a selection of jeeps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
