Hi! My name is Kathleen and my nearly eleven year old son is very interested in learning more about WWII re-enactments. I was hoping that someone would be willing to talk to us via zoom or meet with us In a socially distanced way to discuss how the re-enactments work, the gear etc. He has dozens of questions.
George has been keenly interested in WWII - specifically the European theatre - for several years. He reads every book he can get his hands on, watches the movies I let him and he even made a diorama depicting the D-Day landing that he displayed at the USS Hornet on the 75th anniversary of that day. In addition, last summer we were lucky enough to visit Normandy. Is there any Fox Company member that would be willing to talk to him? I want to continue to support his interest in history and it would be very helpful. Thanks very much.

Hi There- My 12 yo son, an ww2 enthusiast and I were looking for opportunities to get involved with ww2 re-enactment groups. We saw this and the post from another parent and wanted also to get more info. We too would love it if we could connect by zoom to learn more! Please let me know if this is possible. Thank you so much! Laurel (mom) and Blaise
