I think it was the scrumptious girl in uniform in slide 11 that did me in or possibly this:
Some of the re-enactors eschewed weapons altogether. Over at the press hut, a crew of “war correspondents” had set up a period darkroom, developing black-and-white photos shot with an array of old-school cameras, aiming for prints that looked like they’d fallen out of a 1944 time capsule.

And the dance. Of course.

Ahhhhh.

You know what's good? That I don't drive. Because if I drove? I'd _always_ be running around to things like this.

(also, it's a really nice article in that it both _gets_ why people do this stuff and the rather legitimate and murky issues that can and do surround it).

I grew up in a suburb of Reading, and the air show has always been a really big deal.

I can tell you that it's a fairly accessible area via buses, but I'm not sure how far that extends out of Reading and to the airport.

(Did you put any thought into whether or not you have use of those WWII gaiters? They're at the local Army surplus store for $8/pair in unusued grey-white and gently used army green.)
