Event: San Marcos Air Show
Date: 26/26-Sep-1999
Location: Gary Field, San Marcos Texas
Description: This was my first time to bring the jeep to this air show
put on by the Ghost Squadron of the Confederate Air Force (CAF). It's a
two-day event with a lot of aircraft from all periods that attend. In
addition, our local club provides a significant number of vehicles, displays and
support for this show.

Me and the jeep. I'm dressed in 'drag' as we call
it consisting of correct Korean period pattern shirt, pants and
cap. The shoulder harness and web belt are '42-'44 pattern dated
items. For these shows, we try to be as authentic as possible. |

One of my favorite pictures. This was my complete
display for the two-day air-show. I brought out the two
half-shelters and built a tent. In addition, I created a simulated
machine gun nest with all the goodies. This was a pretty good
display and took a lot of time to set-up. It was however, well
worth the time as I received many compliments. |

Some of the other club members vehicles present included
a Dodge WC51 ambulance, a Dodge WC??, a '42 MB and the half-track.
These vehicles were set-up in the WWII section of the display for the
show. Each participated in the Tora Tora Tora re-enactment each
day of the show. |
