I will have my Scorpion Tank, the M16A1 Half Track (Quad 50) and my buddy's M3 Half Track there.

Its a great event and looking forward to the Black Hawk landing, that should be cool.

Wenham Military History Day at the Patton Homestead. Interesting event. Local military reenactors. WWII military vehicles and modern military equipment brought in by current US Army service personal. Had a great time.
