 SERVING THE US IN THE FIELD & FACTORY!

   This past weekend offered a

great opportunity to turn the clock

back to the early 1940's to see how

the men and women who served our

country lived during World War II.

The annual WWII Days Encampment was

held at the test track in Berwick. That

test track was used to test Stuart Tanks

which were manufactured in Berwick at

the former AC&F Factory. 15, 224 tanks

were made to support the war effort and

9,135 local workers did the job. The

Stuart Memorial Association has presented

the encampment every July since 2015!

There are all kinds of equipement and

demonstrations including battle scenes

and wepon firing exhibits. The video

version of this blog contains some

samples! It's all to honor those who

served both on the front lines and in

defense jobs like those that produced

the Stuart tanks. Hope you'll stop by

to see for yourself next year and that

all your NEWS is good!
