Two days of plays, stories, demonstrations and music filled up Stack Square with the reenactment of WWII at Blaenavon Ironworks. German soldiers failed to fight off the advancing British, American and Free French forces as they charged down the hillside recreating the action and adventure of WWII military combat. World War II (WWII or WW2), also known as the Second World War was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945.
