Last post was about French and English camp on Alma reenactment and the battle. Now I want to tell you about Russian part of the event.
This time there were two interesting features during Alma reenactment 2012.
First one is Russian Historical Camp. Main idea was to avoid all modern things and adjust timetable to historical prototype.
It is interesting that Russian army had many curious customs during the Crimean war. The morning and evening dawns, which had to be accompanied with a shot from a artillery cannon, morning checkings, prayers and so on. Certainly, it is hard to avoid modern things. But this is good beginning. This year the historical camp was small. Only two regiments lives there: the Borodinskiy light regiment and Russian artillery. I hope, it will become good tradition and the camp will expand.

And second news was a new reenactment group called artillery detachment of 1\4 pood unicorn (this is type of cannon). This was their first events. It took a year to create new group. And guys did everything just great. This is project of my friend so I think I'll mention them in the future post.

... and from the action.
These men look very good! It is hard to avoid modern airplanes flying over or cars and power wires in the area. In the camp it is best not to bring any modern things that you have to hide.
ReplyDeleteThis camp looks very good to.
When I was introduced to Mr. Pedro ( A Loan Officer), I was entering the market as a first time home buyer.
ReplyDeleteMy needs were a bit different and I had loads of questions, before he sent me my pre-approval letter, he called to speak with me about what it meant and what could change. He made himself available to me at pretty much any hour via email and texts, he was very responsive and knowledgeable. He’s also very straightforward, I explained to him what my expectations were in terms of closing time and other particulars. He said he would meet those expectations but he surpassed them. I closed so quickly my realtor and the seller of course were excited about that. But as a buyer I appreciated being walked through the process in a succinct yet thorough fashion. From pre-approval to closing- the journey was so seamless and I consider myself lucky because I’ve heard horror stories about the internet . I recommend A loan officer, Pedro Jerome contact email: pedroloanss@gmail.com & Whatsapp Number :+18632310632 to anyone looking for a loan in any market.
