10th Engineer Reenactors

[Walt's Daughter]

Our dear friend Joe, sent me this email. I am sharing the contents with all of you. Pretty cool stuff.

 

I took the liberty of writing to Mitch this morning, and am looking forward to hearing from him.

 

=======================

 

Dear Veterans and Friends

 

As you know, we reenact the 10th Engineer Combat battalion (3rd Infantry Division) in FRANCE.

 

3 weeks ago, 12 members of our association decided to build a wood bridge over a ditch near DOLE (JURA). Length = 6.5 yards - width = 2.4 yards (just for a jeep) it was very interesting to build something with trees. Our 2 jeeps crossed the bridge to check it was OK or not!! It was fine... We did it!!! Our first experience!!!

 

I join some pics. Enjoy! We want to realize a report about the combat engineers for Militaria Magazine!

 

All the comments are welcome !!!!!

 

Take care

 

Best wishes!!

Great. Thanks for doing that. I did send him an email this morning, and told him you had sent me the info and photos. I got a return note saying he won't be back for a while. Looks like he may be on vacation for a week or so. I look forward to talking with him then.

 

Smiles,

Marion: I believe Mitchy is a State Cop and works shifts so it may take a while for him to answer. Glad you

contacted him as I think he would be a good member here. The reply I just recieved from him was not in English as he was not home. Will keep you informed.
