[Milsurplus] [MRCA] Eisenhower Farm WW II Reenactment Event AAR

[Bruce MacMillan]

Have you tried to approach the organizers as an exhibitor? I also do 
clandestine comms and at a local WW2 weekend I contacted the people and 
requested space. I was given an area and set up a one man display. My 
focus was SOE & OSS comms and codes and displayed several sets used by both.
