Hello everyone! :)

It's been a while, but it's time for a German World War 2 Reenactment video again!
Me and my friend Bert were invited to participate in a WW2 reenactment at Fort d'Aubin Neufchâteau, in Belgium!

Here is some History about the location:

The Fort d'Aubin-Neufchâteau's construction started in April 1935 and was mostly complete at the time of the invasion in May 1940. At the time of the invasion, the fort was commanded by Captain-Commandant d'Ardenne.

Aubin-Neufchâteau fired on German forces on the opening day of the German attack on Belgium, 10 May 1940. By the end of the day the fort was surrounded, enduring heavy artillery and aerial bomb attacks, as well as infantry assault.

The fort sustained heavy damage to its surface installations and the Germans entered the perimeter on 15 May, but did not take the fort.

A 20 May assault was held off with help from the Fort de Battice. Another assault the next day brought the fort's surrender, as it was nearly out of ammunition.

There were significant casualties on both sides during the battle.

I hope you enjoy the video!!
