Czesc!

A few pictures from last weekend in Luttmersen, near Hannover (52°33'33.1"N 9°34'51.2"E). It was the yearly ACW event, organized by the German UCR eV on a large German Army/ NATO excercise area.

We were approx. 60 Union soldiers with 2 cannons and approx. 60 Confederate with 2 canons.
In the morning at 09:00 the Confederate left the camp and we, the Union, followed 1h later. After a 1km march the first small firefights with Confederate Skirmisher began and after a short while both groups where completly in battle. The fighting lastet till 17:00 and it was nearly a constant moveing back and forth. Back in the camp, after a break for weapon cleaning, we had a Pay Call.

At our camp was also again the Sutler Store from http://www.us-civilwar.de/ which is attending on every ACW event here in Germany.

Approx. 500m away from our camp was also a small WW1 re-enactment also organized by the UCR eV and the VHU.

So, maybe I see you there next year, too!?
