On This Day in History - August 11, 1901
August 11, 1901 #OTD The German Antarctic Expedition, led by Professor Erich von Drygalski (Pictured), began with the departure of the ship Gauss from Kiel. Guided by Captain Hans Ruser, the ship had a crew of five officers, 27 crew, and Drygalski's five-member team. After reaching the previously-unexplored area of Antarctica between 60° E and 100° E, the ship would come within 46 miles (74 km) of the coast of what Drygalski would claim for Germany as Kaiser Wilhelm II Land, but would be trapped in an icefield on February 22, 1902, and be unable to depart for 14 months. After getting free, the Gauss would successfully return to Kiel on November 24, 1903. The expedition costed 1.2 million goldmarks.

WW2 battle reenactment. POV from a vintage train
They made it realistic and had a few board the train and remove a few people(actors) who were missing their papers. It did not end well for them. The American counter offensive was dashed by that mg42 gunfire. Even though it's a fake battle that machine gun is a scary sound! Well put together show.... read more
