Military Vehicles Show this weekend

The annual Military Vehicle Show will take place in the Stand of the Curragh Race Course this Saturday evening and through Sunday.

The Show’s military displays will be expanded to include new vehicles, and new to the Show vehicles such as amphibious DUKWs and vehicles from the UK. The Air Corps will ‘field’ its new helicopter as part of a parachute display.

The Show’s military aspects have now been heavily augmented by all State or Service vehicles on display, including Garda Vehicles, Ambulance, Fire Brigade and Civil Defence.

Enactors will display uniforms and equipment of various periods of Irish history and also do musket drills.

There’s more ... everybody welcome.

Des Travers.
