Pikes Peak Regional Airshow 2026! Not as crowded (nor as hot) as ‘24, but still a blast! Saturday ended early with a Thunderstorm, but Sunday went all day. Frank, with The Reaper, made the hour-and-a-half drive to the Springs Airport. Marc, Kyle, and Nathan made it all weekend, with Mike V and son on Saturday and Kurt on Sunday. A lot of positive comments from volunteers, vendors, and the public on our America250 Timeline Display! Hope to see you next time!

For anyone in the front range area interested in collecting WW2 militaria, there will be a reenactor garage sale in Aurora Sunday, 11 October, 1230-1600. We were contacted by the widow of a long time reenactor in Colorado and she wants to pass on his collection to people who will appreciate it. She has lots of British and US stuff, as well as some German. Lots of C&R items as well. More details to follow.

The CMHG will be at the Pikes Peak Regional Airshow, with the Grim Reaper Gun Truck, a few other Military Vehicles, and an America 250 Static Display! Oh, and there might be a few airplanes around, too. Hope to see you there!

Before F.E. Warren AFB hosted ICBMs, it was a frontier post called D.A. Russell. In honor of that heritage, each year the base hosts a “Muskets to Missiles” living history weekend in conjunction with Cheyenne Frontier Days. Nathan, Marc, Kyle, Lincoln, and Steve presented an America 250 Display and demo’d Flintlocks to today’s M4 Carbine for the crowds that braved the heat! We even supported the Cheyenne Frontier Days Parade and Military Monday Salute. If you missed us, come see us next at the Pikes Peak Regional Airshow in Colorado Springs in September!

In a first for the CMHG, the Group attended and had a blast at the Boulder 1940’s Ball at the Boulder Airport, on Saturday, 20 June. Thousands came by our D-Day display, with Nathan, Kurt, Frank, Marc, Kyle, and Jacob in 4ID, 2AD, and 82ABN uniforms with Steve on the Sherman and Vincent with his Jeep. We had some unique wind issues, especially with the parachute canopy, but pressed on with the displays until after midnight. Didn’t get to see anyone turning into pumpkins, though. If you missed us, come see us next month in the Monument Fourth of July Parade or at Fort D.A. Russel Days in Cheyenne!

Nathan, Kyle, Lincoln, Matt, Kurt, and Frank put on a good ole America 250 Display and Weapons demo at the Western Museum of Mining and Industry yesterday. Although lightly attended, visitors were very interested and appreciative of the display spanning America’s Military heritage from 1775 to today. The weapons demos were mostly successful, though we have to sharpen some flints on the flintlocks! If you missed us, we’ll have a small D-Day footprint at next week’s Boulder 1940’s Ball!
