KELMARSH
HALL Picture Gallery - 25/26th July 2009
Another great
event at Kelmarsh Hall, with the unit scenario set deep in the rear as elements
of the 2nd Guards are relaxing and are being refitted after their recent campaign
against the Germans. We
were treated to an all day banya and good food! What more could a soldier
as for?
The
candelabra is no more out of place than the tents as everything that could be
used was!
The
Starshiy Serzhant keeps an eye on things.

The
troops spend their time carving figures out of wax candles.
This
young krasnoarmeyets may be taking part in the battle tomorrow, but today, she
is helping the cook.

Stepanova busy at work cooking for the unit. Note her faded telogrieka padded
jacket.
The
red flag and the banner of the 2nd Guards Rifle Division.
The
units cook doesn't like her picture taken, so here's one for the collection!
The
last four pictures would of confused anyone but don't worry as some members
of the 2nd Guards portrayed French resistance for the western front battle which
included paratroopers dropping from the skies.
