Hi Guys, just got home yesterday from out biggest and best show of the year:
Largest Multi Period Show in the World!
I was there with 2nd Guards Rifle Division. Our group fielded about 35 to 40 people, plus T34/85. On each of the three days of the show there was an "Ostfront" battle re-enactment, including tanks and for us, air support too, in the form of a YAK.
Here is a poor quality video of the "Ostfront Battle" on day 3 of the show. We did this battle each day. Sadly the member of the public filming it missed the start of the battle with me in it dying for the Motherland. But it will give you an idea:

I used a 14.5mm PTRD anti tank rifle. Here is a short clip of me firing it:
