    I live in Waterloo, but from the Ardennes. I study one thing; Tiger II used in the Battle of the Ardennes. Thank you for your welcome! (And sorry my English not very good ...)

    Hello Jean Luc. Nice to have you with us here. Nice to have someone form the Waterloo area here. I used to live right next from your town. I have excellent memories of my stay in Belgium.

    How " bad" will it affect mobility in your town next year ?
    Outsiders without tickets are banned from a 10 km radius ?

    You're English is a million times better than my French sir! The name of Waterloo caught my attention, I'm new here too.

    Over on the Napoleonic Wars forum and on twitter people are expecting bumper crowds to the field in June next year. The Waterloo200 organisation might be a good place to ask.

    How wonderful to be from one truly historic place and live in another. I have visited Waterloo, all too briefly and explored the Ardenne a bit more. I look forward to seeing your post on Tiger 11's in the Ardenne. A formidable machine..

    As already pointed out your English is just fine, a bit better than my Flemish as I speak not a word of it and certainly better that my woeful French, a source of amusement to the France as well as good natured anfd well deserved ridicule !! :)

    Joyeux Noël,

    Gaines

    Welcome to the forum. I remember my visit to Waterloo well. First time out of the states. Gorgeous area.
