This event will be a Normandy scenario conducted in a wooded area with many natural ravines which covers 150-200 acres. This event is intended to be a 36 hour immersion beginning early on Saturday morning (0300) with both Parachute and Glider elements being inserted by truck (truck jump) into assigned DZ/LZ's and then into assigned Assembly Area's.

There will be a hot food vendor on site and plenty of POV parking, water will be available. It is understood that many unit members, especially GI, who do not normally portray Airborne would like to participate, we highly encourage them to do so at this event as the more the better.
