War and Peace Show

This is a good little video all about The War And Peace show.  Link

"For the past 30 years the War and Peace show in Kent, England, has served as an exhibition of military vehicles and a forum for the re-enactment of armed conflicts witnessed in the 20th century. Join RT as we team up with a Russian delegation on the road from Moscow, period vehicles in tow, to meet other enthusiasts who share the same history and use it to turn former enemies into new allies."

Picture Of The Week - No 7 - Schwimmwagen

In 2008 I went to the War and Peace Show. Forget your tanks and your half-tracks etc, without doubt the vehicles that impressed me the most was this WW2 Volkswagen Schwimmwagen (which literally means Floating / Swimming Car). What a fantastic little vehicle which these photos just don't do justice to. If they weren't so expensive I would so love to own one.

War and Peace Show 2011


The 2011 'War and Peace Show' (sometimes simply referred to as 'Beltring')is being held in southern England. I've been before but couldn't make it this year. Looking at their photo gallery I wish I had able to, for there is some astonishing hardware on display. Their gallery is well worth a look. Link
