Nice impression of the period. I also appreciate that you laid out exactly what you have and where you got it, so other can follow your lead. And for the other posters here with personal photo's those are all inspiring...makes me want to collect some gear!

Ive still got piles of horse and mule stuff but honestly it doesn't seem to get the "love" it deserves.

 

Horse cavalry to most folks ceased to exist on Bataan.

Juan a HUGE NO they are not...they are from our 2nd Armoured In Europe trips stretching back to 2006 showing the level of detail and authenticity our unit goes to to to be there....right place right time.

Very well done! I'm not quite ready to turn in "Old Dobbin", yet, but I'd certainly accept a ride from y'all.

 

Come on the trip next year to the ETO post-7941-0-30357700-1382210846.jpgpost-7941-0-14992400-1382210864.jpgbut I warn you, there may be some shooting up of German horse drawn transport !

Are these shots from filming of Fury?? Very cool indeed.

 

 

No Juan they are not from the FURY film, these photos are from 2nd Armored in Europe Commemorative trips to France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Luxembourg, Germany and Czechoslovakia where we try to make the events as close to the experience of the WW2 Armored soldier as we can - without hopefully killing anyone ! We have portrayed 2nd/3rd/4th/6th/9th/10th/16th Armored at various timespost-7941-0-82951400-1382211127.jpg
