64. Deutsch-Amerikanisches Volksfest: Deutlich weniger Besucher als in den Vorjahren

In Spitzenjahren besuchten über 100.000 Menschen das Lagervolksfest auf dem Truppenübungsplatz in Grafenwöhr. In diesem Jahr blieb der sonstige große Ansturm wegen Regens und Kälte aus. Den Besuchern gefiel es trotzdem.

Die Waffenschau ist laut Oberstleutnant Florian Rommel einzigartig in Deutschland.
