Champs-Élysées, Paris: The US 28th Division chosen to represent the US on the Victory Parade August 29th 1944

                                                                                                Welcome

I and my partner Hanna have been interested and taking part in WW2 re-enactment and military vehicle meetings
since the 1990's. We have explored many battle sites abroad but as with most interests have now focused our attention on one group, the  US 28th Division who's extraordinary engagements in Europe including the Hurtgen Forrest, and the Ardennes have not received the recognition that other units gained  during WW2 simply because the press corps were placed elsewhere. 
This is not to minimise the contributions others made, however this division appears again and again in areas of Europe we are particularly interested in. So much so that we discovered they liberated (quite unknown to us at the time) the small villages between St Vire and Villedieu in Calvados, namely Sourdeval, Gathemo and its associated forest where we had recently purchased a property.

                       This website is dedicated to the US 28th Division
