I was once on a birthday party for my sister-in-law's son, when we heard some strange rumbling, and the glasses started to shake,went outside and apparently there was a convoy of halftracks and shermans passing by, en route for a reenactment or something.

was not as loud as this one, but was still an awesome sight!

Brilliant :) :) :)

Great to see them going 'at speed' in the second video, I would hate to have to try and stop the lead pair and low loader in a hurry

A useful reminder just how new the combustion engine was in WWI

Wow! That was amazing! But hardly authentic (nobody walked liked Charlie Chaplin).    :)
