I guess I'm the new member who drove up the east coast "for nothing".   I don't 
think it was for nothing since the wife and I make these weekends 
mini-vacations (mini-holidays for our Brit friends).   We came to Chambersburg 
on Thursday eve when the forcast was for cool and dry.  It's nobody's fault 
that the weather didn't cooperate.  The wife and I toured Gettysburg 
battlefield, played 2 games of disc golf, toured Fredericksburg, VA battlefield 
and hope to play more disc golf on the way home tomorrow.   I did find the tank 
battlefield, and I now have Frank's cell number (BTW, it's for sale to the 
highest bidder).  I didn't get to try the tank out, but it will receive a few 
improvements by next battle anyway. 
 
I don't think it was FUBAR, and I'll take a snow check (colder version of rain 
check) for next year.

Nothing actually happened.  Two members made it to the field, took some 
pictures and left.  One new member apparently never found the field and was 
lost out of cell coverage as of 12:30pm.  Haven't heard from him yet.  Another 
new member drove halfway up the East coast for nothing.  This event should have 
been called off Friday morning when they were forecasting 100% chance of rain 
and 5 to 8" of snow.  

IMO this was one big FUBAR.
