Siege of Gdansk 1807

This is a well put together film of the Napoleonic reenactment held in May of this year celebrating the siege two hundred years ago. This little film captures some of the excitement of a skirmish in a good location - some reenactment footage is from too far away and looks boring - this gets right up close so well done whoever filmed it. Report and photos from 2005 here - 2007 here and here
