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.

As for vehicles, there did not seem to be any heavy armor there... probably to protect the paved areas that serve the airport. But there were plenty of soft skin vehicles... including a selection of jeeps.

Nice pics, thanks! I haven't been able to go there for a few years. Maybe next year.
