A selection of galleries from a range of photographers on one theme: the successful Overlord 2011 Military Spectacular held for the first time at the Lawns, Denmead.

Pictures from SOE members are listed below, the list will grow as I manage to wrest images from them. There are also links to external sites with some fine pictures from our visitors and from our exhibitors, we hope to improve facilities for photographers for 2012 so make sure you come along to OVERLORD 2012 with plenty of batteries and memory cards or film!

This lightbulb has suddenly appeared in the top right corner of the blog!

No worries – if it is lit with a  green box beneath then click on the box to contact me to solve your queries about SOE, the OVERLORD show, military vehicle ownership and the meaning of life. Just be aware that if a question is too difficult I can’t answer … but I may know a (wo)man who can.

And if it is unlit with an orange box beneath? I’m not around but you can leave your email so that I can get back to you. I look forward to your contact!

And a personal plea from the webwright who also moonlights as a show commentator – could you provide full information about your vehicle – you have spent a great deal of time and money on it and no doubt want me to do justice to it. A full description makes it simpler for me to talk knowledgeably about your beast for two or three laps of the arena !
