Subject:      Nost: WWII HRS NATIONAL BATTLE

The World War II Hisotorical Reencatment Society will hold the 1992
National Battle at Camp Atterbury, Indiana, from 9-11 October.  Camp
Atterbury is located in south central Indiana, south of Indianapolis,
on I-65, exit 76-B.  Access to Camp Atterbury is by taking US highway 31
north for four (4) miles, then turn left at the traffic light that leads
directly into Camp Atterbury.  You can follow the WWII HRS signs to the
event Headquarters for Registration.

The Battle Fee for the event is the same as for 1991: $25 per person.
That fee covers three meals (Breakfast and Dinner on Saturday, and
Breakfast on Sunday), the $2.80 per person per day Facilities Utiliz-
ation Fee required by the state of Indiana, and the administrative costs
of the event.  Billeting is also included in that fee.  Both unit
housing (open bay) and family housing is provided.  Off post billeting
arrangements can be made by those who desire such accommidations, but
that is up to the individual and will not cause any break in the battle
fee.

Pre-registration will be required for reserving billeting space and
meals.  The reistration fee is to be sent to the Event Coordinator:
Barry Willard, 603 Merrimac Drive, Lexington, KY 40503.  The Event
Coordinator Phone number is 606-224-3224.  Messages will be answered as
promptly as possible.  Pre registartion fees are to be made out to Barry
Willard.

The Battle Scenario will be a Western Front engagement with U.S.,
Commonwealth, and German reenactors are welcome to attend.

In order to attend as a participant, you have to be a member of one of
the WWII reenacting organizations.  Those not a member who are
interested in attending might be able to attend as umpires, or attend as
members of the press/photographers, however this is up to the event
coordinator.  I am willing to help anyone on the WWII list in finding
a way to attend perhaps as an 11. Panzer umpire.  Larry's idea is very
interesting, however a way needs to be found to facilitate it.  Let me
touch base with some people and get a feel for it first.
