September 17 1944, almost all troops arrived on top of their drop zones without incident. The 82nd concentrated their efforts to seize the Groesbeek Heights instead of capturing their prime objective, the Nijmegen bridge. The capture of the Groesbeek Heights was to set up a blocking position on the high ground to prevent a German attack out of the nearby Reichswald and to deny the heights to German artillery observers.
Required/Recommended Equipment- Uniforms: Period correct uniforms are required. We will be going by the 10ft rule, if your uniform convinces us from that distance, it will pass muster.
This means no modern uniforms WHAT SO EVER.

A little bit about us, we are a relatively new collection in terms of producing events as a group but in no way new at producing events in general. Specifically historic and MILSIM/Immersive styled events. Most of the crew in Broken Arrow Events are namsofters and have been attending or producing these events for years. Earlier in the year some of us were also part of the group that put on Operation Eclipse: Fight for Cologne up in Massachusetts. We hope to start this event off well and continue to do a few more during the year (2018). Any questions, ask away or hit me up (Liam Wachter) or the group Broken Arrow Events on facebook.
Thanks,
Liam

Everyone left happy so I will take it that it went well. Joe I think there is still a hunger our there for more and guys were asking about any other events soon. We told them about yours in January. We're planning something in March/April and big D-Day in June. Hopefully interest picks up.

It was a pretty good turn out, 12 vs 12 maximum. A lot of fun despite starting a bit late (seriously no big deal). It was worth every minute!

This was the best WWII airsoft game of 2017. Had lots of fun. Weather was great. Everything worked. Major and minor conflicts. Good group of players.
We had three Orange/Dutch Resistance. Sneaking around the occupiers and trying to stay in character in case the Nazis got suspicious (before Americans moved in). And then running away from them. My girlfriend got away and then yelling that there was definitely a woman and trying to track her down. She liberated a Nazi head from its body.
Then working with the Americans. Holding the town/village and changing history.
Great day!
