  • What an awesome WW2 weekend we had at the Chalke Valley History Festival! Some of the highlights included talks with British Dambuster George “Johnny” Johnson and a German Knight's Cross winner Günter Halm. We watched a battle re-enactment, danced the night away to the sound of the beautiful Bombshell Belles at the Blitz Party, climbed inside a British Cromwell Tank and were invited to fire the legendary 25 pounder British Artillery gun!

    Very nice video! Was just wondering if you were going to sometimes put in some military statistics. For example:. Dates, battles. You have an amazing opportunity to teach people about what happened in so many different locations. Also when I was in London, I went to a museum that contained a lot of WWII memorabilia including a bomb shelter. It wasn't easy to find, but worth it. Can't wait for your next video😃!

    Did the air raid siren and lights go out by surprise right in the middle of the blitz party ? Looks that way in vidio but not sure.

    • @ww2nation
      @ww2nation  7 років тому

      They did. The siren came on and then everybody was asked to evacuate the tent. It was terrific!
