another new member - Ken Grano - 01-16-2014 My name is Stephen Keith. I live in Pembroke, NH USA. I am an amateur WW2 historian and re-enactor. I also have an extensive collection of WW2 Historic Military Vehicles (HMVs) and other items.
A few years ago, I saw the History Channel episodes on the 291st. In honor what they did,I stenciled all my HMVs that could have been in the 291st, as being in that great unit. I also spoke with Col Pergin and sent him a picture of my 'fleet' with his unit markings on them.
You can see some of my HMVs at: http://ww2movievehicles.com
Thanks Steve another new member - Walt's Daughter - 01-17-2014 Hey Stephen:
Love your work. Always thrilled to see vehicles restored. They look wonderful.
I too had the pleasure of speaking with the Colonel a few years back. He was so unassuming. He actually asked about my dad and his service. Took a real interest and said that my dad was a real asset to the war effort. I also have two signed books from him in my collection - A real honor.
Look forward to talking with you. Thanks for joining. another new member - Walt's Daughter - 01-17-2014 Back again - Just read this on your site:
Wow, maybe I can use some footage for part two of my documentary. That's a thought. another new member - Walt's Daughter - 01-17-2014 Where to you live in New England? We are having a WWII reunion in north of Stone Harbor, NJ next September.
Three years ago I planned a surprise for "my boys", as I so affectionately call them, in PA. A group of re-enactors I knew from the net, brought several vehicles and we took the guys and their families on a route through town. They had a blast and so did we. It would be fun to try something like that again. Anyway, it's a thought.
Here's a few of the pics from that reunion. Still makes me smile. another new member - CaptO - 01-22-2014 Wow, that must have been sme great kind of photographer to have shot all those pictures! another new member - Walt's Daughter - 01-22-2014 Ya, wasn't he though???? |
