WW2 Flamethrower Shoot and Display

F$cking awesome! Its just too bad like every other shoot, i broke it slightly! Gotta grab the videos from my phone and upload them!
 
Excellent day and impressive as hell. This was the best Saturday in a long time. Loved it when the bunker was finished off by flattening.

I'm smiling from ear to ear. It was my first time at an NES event and aside from flame-throwing, I met some genuinely nice NES folks.

If Dave and his crew put on another event like this, I strongly urge anyone who was on the fence to show up and support these guys! Literally, there was TONS of live fire !
 
I was there for a bit

A big thanks to everyone involved in pulling off this event. It was an awesome way to spend an afternoon, and there were a lot of cool people and a ton of cool stuff.

My first as well, very cool event. I don't post much but who could say no to an opportunity like this. Thanks to everyone involved.
 
These are from my crappy camera. The Germans hitting the bunker, the Americans hitting the bunker, and then the tank comes over the top to make sure.

I chose a few from each person I managed to photograph. If I missed you, I'm sorry, but I either had to hit the head or you happened to be on the far side of the field. If you want full sized 3264x1836 copies, send me a PM with your set number, an email address, and I'll send you all I took of you.

I was the guy in the green NATO ammo can shirt, open carrying the Sig P226. It was a pleasure meeting fellow NESers in person. Hope this is the first of many NES flamethrower / WWII exhibitions to come.
Flame on... [devil2]

Again if I didn't get you, I'm sorry, but I'm sure the staff photographers got it.

If you didn't get a chance to shoot one and are wondering what it was like to shoot a flamethrower, it's kind of like...

Thanks guys! I thought it was great. My kids thought it was once in a lifetime. My parents and friends who I sent video to are stunned.
 
I wish I wasn't kicked out an hour after arriving. I guess my donation didn't cover the NES members using the flamethrower... [flame]
