Hello I'm a 70 year old reanactor with a couple museums doing mid to late 1800s. I'm just courious what other folks are doing?

NOT schusters, I'm not strapped for cash but I would like good delivery and easy payment :)

Thanks guys!

I purchased a replica m1907 field tunic at a surplus store near me and was comparing it to originals online, and one thing I noticed about mine is that the buttons were very shiny compared to the originals. I am going for a mid 1916 look so if there is a way I can mute the color a bit that would be awesome. (And yes I know the stick grenade model I have is incorrect, I live in the US and have no easy access to replicas.)

So I’m working on a 75th Ranger regiment Panama kit, I just need help understanding what pouches and how many they had on there Alice system and where I can find a accurate butt pack for a good price.

Before you say join a group Im alreay a part of one just want some advice for a impression. Its for a late war/battle of berlin group any advice on brand or is it hard and require customs.

Hello! My name is Natashenka and im a girl who is obsessed with the world wars. Im 18 and I've been learning specifically ww2 for years now. I have quite a bit on reproduction items, and a full Wehrmacht felduniform that I ordered and will come soon yay.

I live in a very small town and I dont really have any friends :/ and its hard to find people that are passionate about history like I am.

I was just on here wondering if anyone had similar interests in world war 2 or 1 and wanted to be friends :D

That's it 🥀

I am currently doing a WW2 British Colour Sergeant impression and keep getting conflicting answers inregards to rank presentation. Does the rank go on the right sleeve or both?

Hello! I am a canadian reenactor, i do us civil war, ww2 basically everything, anyway i placed 2 orders on military tour (website based in winnipeg canada) at first i was really exited until the customer service agent started becoming really rude and not shipping my order (when they said they would) when asking them for a tracking link they dodged my question and said i didnt pay for shipping, ive looked up reviews online and i havent seen anything really positive….i wish i knew this before i ordered..can someone who has used military tour before tell me they’re experiences with them? Did your items actually arrive?

Thoughts on creating and starting a group that portrays operation nimrod sas

Hi! I'm brand new to ww2 reenacting (coming from 6 years of Vietnam war reenacting) and was wondering if I could use a M1 Garand chambered in .308 instead of 30.06 for a 4th infantry division in Hürtgen, 1944. The only reason I ask is because the price of 30.06 is increasing and .308 is more readily available and cheaper for an M1 where I live.

I recently got an Osprey publishing book about the International brigades during the Spanish civil war and decided to do a International brigade impression. I'm new to reenacting and I don't know were to find reliable places/suppliers to get uniforms/gear to accurately portray a International brigade volunteer, I hope you guys can help me.

Note: I was able to find reliable places for reproductions of shirts, socks, sweater, and boots from the period but I was unable to find any for pants or the jacket.

Hey everyone I’m looking for active WWII German reenactment or living history groups in Colorado or nearby states. I’m based in northern Colorado and would like to connect with groups that attend public displays, historical events and eventually tactical reenactments.

I’m interested in hearing what units and time periods you portray, where you’re based, and whether you’re accepting new members. I’m willing to travel for events, so recommendations in Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Utah, or New Mexico are welcome too.

My interest is historical education and accurate impressions, with no political or extremist involvement. If you’re part of a group or know one worth contacting, please comment or send me a message. Thanks!

Hello ,so years ago I used to fall in with a group that reeanacted as the 7th wv company I. For some reason it looks like they have dropped of the face of the earth. Granted they weren't the safest bunch of guys but still I wondered what happened to them. Does anyone know what became of them ?

I thought I’d share with you a couple of my photos from a large WW2 medical event I do yearly in France. These were taken by me (apart from the last photo, taken by my husband). Does anyone else here do WW2 medical reenactments?

hello I am a reenactment artist based in Korea. Please review my World War I U.S. military reenactment and let me know what needs to be changed or corrected.

Hi all, picked up a yugo mount for my semi mg42. I do USGI so I don't know much about German paints and want to do it right. Will use it for fun capture pictures and if my German friends want to use it. Where is a good place to purchase spray cans? Was ordnance paint different than German army paint? Thinking field gray so.it can be used early war if the need ever arises

I'm going to fabricate an optic mount for the tripod and replace the straps and pads for leather. A lot more work will go into this but I like a project.

Finally degreased and going to work on stripping the old paint

Operation Urgent Fury, 2/505 82nd Airborne.

Sgt Mallet, E-5 Company Medic.

Urgent Fury is an impression I've been doing for a while now. If you squint hard enough, southern PA looks pretty tropical.

Couple notes:

82nd was the only division to have PASGT helmets at this point.

The unit I portray quickly shed their PASGT vests.

CO of 2/505 Col. Nightingale ordered his unit to use sandbag scrim and apply glint tape to their suspenders, which would show up on an AC-130s thermals to prevent friendly fire.

Hair regs went out the window.

Sleeve rolls also went out the window. Edit: typos

A glimpse into our latest immersive campaign weekend.

The 1st Caçador Battalion was an elite light infantry unit of the Portuguese Army during the Peninsular War. Alongside the 3rd Caçador Battalion, it was integrated into the Light Division, serving alongside three British regiments: the 43rd, 52nd and 95th Rifles.

This immersive weekend provided an opportunity to further develop our individual and collective skills, helping us maintain high standards of historical accuracy, military drill and field performance across all our members.
