As the armies muster for the coming campaign, word of new forces being mustered has been trickling in to Schoeffen-Buschhagen headquarters.
There has been some concern at the Allied headquarters over the reliability of the forces from Stanzbach-Anwatsch.

The sappers can be seen here undertaking various field exercises:
However, the country folk and farm animals of Stanzbach-Anwatsch seem unconcerned by war and rumors of war:

Pleasant pics and a very fitting uniforms for sappers.
ReplyDeleteThen I have to confess I'm a little lost with the geography: Stanzbach-Anwatsch: how does it relate to Schoeffen-Buschhagen and Wachovia?
