A large private army will gather at Kemble airfield, near Cirencester, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June 27/28/29.
Kemble Military Show is one of the largest in the UK and the three days will be packed with exhibits and special events for all the family, all with a military theme.
There will be breathtaking displays of military armour in the live arena together with authentically loud and dramatic re-enactments of battles.
The ever-popular aircraft of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight will stage a Dakota fly-past on Saturday June 28 in what is the 90th anniversary year of the RAF. On each of the three days, there will be a small air display of military aircraft.
On the ground, more than 800 military and classic vehicles will be displayed ; armoured vehicles, Jeeps, classic cars and motorcycles. Members of the Military Vehicle Trust (MVT), which will celebrate its 40th anniversary at the Kemble Military Show 2008, own many of these vehicles.
A registered charity and the oldest military vehicle club in the world, MVT members have vehicles from pre-First World War to the present day, from bicycles to tanks and from just about every manufacturing country in the world.
MVT members travel from all across the UK to the annual Kemble Military Show and this year's feature vehicles will include D & J Willmott's Bedford X-ray van from 1943 of which only 50 were built.
So that visitors can see what life was like in wartime, there will a First World War field kitchen in operation and demonstrations of cooking wartime recipes. There will also be 1930s dancing in period costumes by Gloster Jive and Swing whose founders, Gary and Sara Boon are the UK's Lindy Hop champions. Many army regiments and wartime veterans, including Chelsea Pensioners, will be at the Kemble Military Show 2008 together with military bands.
Finally, for the bargain hunter and collector of militaria, there will be many trade stands to browse.
John Keedwell, director of the Kemble Military Show 2008, says: "Each year, we attract more military vehicles, including some of the rarest in the world. With the many other attractions for the whole family to enjoy, Kemble is definitely the best military show in the south-west."
Admission prices on Friday are adult: £5, children/OAP/concessions: £3, under 5s go free.Saturday and Sunday prices: adult: £7, children/OAP/concessions: £4, under fives go free.
