FORT CLARK DAYS 3/4 & 3/5 2011- "WEAPONS"

They gave demonstrations with this cannon. It was VERY loud!

A pretty fancy ass gattling gun. They did demos with this too.


This display was VERY interesting. It was a collection of WWII stuff from Switzerland. That basket on the right, behind the bike, has mortars in it.

This gun was mounted on one of the two WWII Jeeps.

Knives, hand grenades, flash lights etc. All from the Swiss Collection.

Dear Mary,
thanks for all the pics. I have a survival knife from my Navy days and it looks just like the one in your pic that has a brown leather sheath with the sharpening stone attached. That Gatling gun was impressive, wish I could have seen it fire.
Love,
Dave

HI Mary,
Nice pictures! I saw a Gatling gun once last summer up here. I guess there must be several reproductions hanging around. I like the bicycle, wish I had had that one in China. Would have made my trips to the supermarket much easier.
