Interesting form of defense I must say. 

Wilderness? I thought it was 150th Spotsylvania based scenarios not Wilderness? But then come again, those battle were only day apart. I just thought they were gonna do some trenches as well for Spotsy. I orginally was going to attend this but my Pard backed out, so no mess. :c

Yea your right it was Spotsylvania, but a lot of people called it the Wilderness as well. These defenses weren't for the public battles, we built these our selves for the tactical. We also camped out and guarded them during the night.

Picture of our camp from Monday's show at Walworth Castle, before all the public turned up and got in the way of it. I actually have no idea where I was when this was taken.

One day shows only involve a small camp with a burgundian used as an armoury to keep extra kit in and check swords, shields, etc. for damage before letting the public hold them or fighting with them and a canopy set up so we have somewhere to eat and hydrate.

We hydrate more than Conan.

Vast majority of Horse Artillery units don't have horses, not exactly practical on a battlefield the size we usually have to play with, and pretty costly
No tarletons at this event, space restrictions when we were coming across meant we were down to the bare minimum of kit, so all the bulky stuff i.e. tarletons were left back in england

Title: Re: Reenactment Pictures.
Post by: Duuring on May 07, 2014, 08:19:46 pm
I was talking in general.

I find horse artillery without horses to be pretty much the same category as cavalry without horses. You're missing the one vital thing that makes your impression different from the rest. I understand why it happens, of course. A great uniform, being something 'more' and 'special, and the fact that you can swag around with cavalry sabres, and when people comment on your lack of horses you just bring up the 'expensive'-excuse. If people can't afford an impression in full, or are simply not willing to do that full picture with all the gear that makes that impression, as it should be done, I don't think they should do it. Simple as that. Exceptions only for very expensive not-used items, such as fire-arms for cavalry and artillery. I can understand not spending +1000 euro on something you'll just carry around. Great respect to those that do, of course.

This comes from a cavalryman who does sit on a horse, who's sick of camping next to 'dismounted' dragoons that go around camp telling everybody how great it is to be a cavalryman.

If I ever end up doing medieval, I'll dress up in a white tunic, with a white hood and big leather belt filled with throwing knifes. I'll also put something extra up in my sleeve and once I'm done up dressing, I'll jump into the nearest haystack.

Definately, steampunks took over the faire. Sorry about that but there is some group that looks the part. Like templar knights.

But those farby thing are usually visitors. ooo i wanna dress up as i go.  The people who actually runs the booth, show, shops and stuff are more authentic.   

Im not a expert in that time frame but there was a group that does militia stuff. They were pretty cool to let me have a private lesson thing. They dont let pubs touch or anything for safety reason but apparently this guy recognized my dad and was  big fan of him. So he invited me into his camp and taught me how to hold long long stick thingy.

Those stuff, taught me how to use it and explained what they're used for. Then he showed me musket blunberbuss thingy

Like that, again i apologize, medieval is not my well area of knowledge and this was two years ago. I forgot what they're called.

We're well before gunpowder weaponry, aiming at about 1250, though we have the extra equipment (mostly helmets) to go earlier and can do later at a stretch.

Spears are a pain in the arse, though. Ours are about 7-8 feet long and made of ash wood. It's unsafe to carry them in the easiest way because someone could get jabbed in the face, so we have to hold them above our shoulders, pointing down.

This is the closest picture I could find, albeit with terrible stances.

The guy on the right is decidedly not safe, it looks a lot like he's going for an overhead swing which is going to fall short and hit his buddy in the face with the point.

Cyberpunk is basically regular punk with a robotic arm stuck on, but I don't think anyone actually dresses like they're out of a Shadowrun game.
Steampunk isn't really deserving of the name at all.

But I dress like I'm in a 90s grunge band, so what do I know. Dressing like I'm from the past is a speciality.

Dressing from the past is definately a reenactor speciality.


Actually i take that back, i know many people who get in uniform at the last minute and get rid of them away when event ends.  :c

But I actually do spend alot of time in my uniform and stuff than my civvies. Now that Im getting into US Gi/Marine Impression. Tons of stuff Im ready to hit the neighborhood with haha. Them US navy denim <3  Im wearing my red wool flannel shirt as i type right now. Getting through the itchy phase so i can be comfortable next weekend.

Depending on the event for how close it is, I typically drive up in civvies and wear the reenacting cap (for whatever event it may be) and get changed at my truck. But after the event is over, I'll drive back with period clothes on and then modern shoes so I'm not having any trouble with the gas pedal.

Actually those field are kept like that forever, well as long the owner keeps them. They just fix them if damaged or too low before the event.

http://www.resacabattlefield.org/FoRstart.html (http://www.resacabattlefield.org/FoRstart.html)     http://www.civilwar.org/ (http://www.civilwar.org/)

These two organzigation helped alot, they take donations to purchase land that took part of battle, demolish anything modern on it and then recreate it like it was back then either donate it to state park or national park.  I think the reenactment part belonged to the State Park. Resaca State Park is actually brand new, havent been opened yet but was open last weekend for sneak preview.

Anyway, State Parks are the best. They largely encourage Civil War reenactment on original ground. Which is good for economy, the money we pay for, sutler[s regstriation, admission registration, and food sale all goes to the state park. Nice profit for them to keep up the work while NPS rarely allow event on original ground, when they do, its strictly non-battle event.

In my opinion, Lookout Mtn and Chickamuga are the best battlefield. So beautiful.

I enjoy walking through in my uniform

If you're up for that, I recommend walking the sunken road at Shiloh in uniform. Best period moment also Hornet Nest is on part of it.

Just finished up Picketts Mill and got my first taste of Authentic Campaining. Man im glad im in shape otherwise I would have died with the miles up up and down ravines and river crossings. I was about twice as muddy from the knees down however Saturday evening and into the night it poured making slepe impossible and completely soking every article of clothing I was wearing. I will write more about it later.

I get what you mean with the bender. Mines a cheap regtQm. Regarding shaping the Hardees there is plenty of evidence of guys customizing it to their preference so I changed it to mine. Was also a bit messed since I had to use it as a pillow to keep my head out of the mud. :p

Much needed at the end of the day though!
The Daily Telegraph is doing a great job of getting on board with regards to Waterloo 200. They were there yesterday and have put up a load of photos from the tower. My unit has a rule which is, you get your face published anywhere (magazine, newspaper, book, Tv, film etc) you buy a crate... judging by this, I'm well and truly fooked!

Do they even realize the anniversay is next year? And by god, some one explain them the difference between a musket and a rifle.

With your logic it would also be bad to joining reenactment or a union group at all, because there are hundreds of others doing it...

The videos are for his group and I imagine it is much better to see someone from the actual group doing these videos than some random guy from the internet.

There are perfectly good video out there to save him the trouble. Just send the new guys a link and discuss with him. Then give them personal training at event. NCO are to take them out of camp and to train them with everything. I believe training in person are more effective than videos.

It would be a bit boring to have 1 prussian group fight 5 french groups. Or?

Keep in mind that the Reenactment scene is not nearly as large as the ACW reenactment scene in the US.
You need to fill up where you can. And TBH, I do not care, its fun to see different groups and regiments in different battles. It is more about recreating the history in general than recreating the real battle.

If you want to see some pictures from Wavre, take a look at Christines photos here: https://www.facebook.com/cpetsepers/photos_albums
Saturday and Sunday. Not all pics have been uploaded yet, but still quite alot.

Modern glasses in reenacting... Get prescriptions in period frames or go without and not carry a weapon. A great impression can be immediately ruined by someone with shit on their face. May as well be wearing stunna shades.

Or just see if prescription contacts do the job. We can't even have glasses worn around the camp because we predate them by about 40 years.

I wouldnt wear contacts during reenacting.    Contact are made out of plastic sorts, they can melt if exposed to specific heat.   One lady was cooking on the grill and the contacts done went melted in her eyes and made her perma-blind.   
 
I'd stick with me period glasses or just go without.   


I have period glasses for ww2, love them  but for ACW i dont and i wont. They charge it over 100 for two tiny spec you will ever see, so i've been doing ACW blind and been killing the wrong team.

Post by: joer5835 on July 16, 2014, 07:47:54 pm
I already feared that contacts wouldn't be a good idea, with burning flints and exploding pan charges everywhere.

I'm glad I sticked to period glasses.

Post by: Barnesy on July 16, 2014, 08:19:27 pm
I've not had any problems with contacts when volleying. So long as the guy next to you is safe in firing, e.g. Angling his lock up instead of right at your face there shouldn't be many problems!
Worn mine since I started, I had a pair of period specs but just found them so uncomfortable I decided to stick with contacts

Post by: kpetschulat on July 16, 2014, 09:54:14 pm
Thanks for the hilarious comments and picture edits. The guy with the modern glasses was a guest who's in the Army National Guard. Him and I both are blind as bats without glasses, but is decided to take mine off, because I didn't want to ruin the look. He REALLY needed them. It was for his own safety that we decided to let him use them. I had trouble seeing myself, but it could make out blobs to be enemies and colors, bla bla bla.

I have no problems with that, I was in the same boat. Without glasses I can see about 5cm in front of me, after that it becomes one big blur. I just couldn't do without them, luckily I have period glasses now.

I had a lot of trouble getting used to round glasses, I can't really place how but they looked different from my usual glasses.

I'm fine now, except for there's some burn marks on my reenactment glasses and I can't find a way to brush it off.

Post by: Barnesy on July 17, 2014, 04:14:52 pm
I just decided not to go with the period specs... I found them uncomfortable and just generally thought I'd benefit more from contacts as I can wear them outside events too. Only issue I've had is getting the buggers in on hot days when I can't get my eye open as I'm sweating too much!

Isnt that the pubs on the bridges? If so, you should remove them. After all that is the point of reenactors using photoshop lololo.

Haha yeah it's public on the high bridge... french on the lower one, I'm learning I'm learning. I just wish I could afford CS6, stuck on CS2 which isn't easy to use!! :P Just been photoshopping one of our guys out who was on his phone. Considering making his jacket red so nobody associates him with us ;)

Ahh starting out small is fine. Your goal should be being able to make the pubs "Disappear" so you can have a nice "period" photo.   

Looks good though, is that the Peninsular campaign? The landmark for me screams spain for some reason.

Was my first foreign event!
It was preceded by a fighting retreat over 2 miles or so, conducted by the 95th. We were told to give them a rearguard action and that was it. Turns out that it delayed the battle somewhat owing to their information about quite where and how long the rearguard action should be was awful!

Met up with one of the new SoD's from the 15e by the name of The Kaptain. As it turns out we both reenact in the same club so I stopped buy and rolled with them on the CS side for a battle. If you look closely on the paper is says "Seal Team 15". Landrick will get it.

Also I ran into a campaigner named Ian McWherter. He gave me for free a pair of extremely high quality Schuylkill Arsenal trousers he made hand sown for himself which was pretty freaking radd. He does 21e Ligne and invited me to a Napoleonic event in Nor Cal in November which I plan to attend.

Blurred a Edge zelt and M42 tunic in 1941? Nah... Farb. Man, I need to lose more weight and get rid of my tits and kidney tits.

Strictly speaking so called M42 tunic in 1941 is not exactly impossible, just extremely unlikely. So called M40 tunics started production around late 1937 to early 1938 and it's possible to find them in period photos at barracks or even at the front, such photos are just tricky to find and even sometimes to recognise the mere difference of collar. In same vein it is perfectly possible to find someone in early war gear by 1943 to 1944, but those guys probably had long garrison duties and barely got time to wreck their uniforms and all that.

Also while of course losing just slightly more weight around waist is not bad idea in general, it is possible to go for stout appearance meanwhile by adjusting posture. In all those pictures you posted you are not standing exactly straight but have noticeable hunch there. Of course, standing straight with good posture does slightly pronounce problem of chest and waist but at least it gives better impression that you have good idea what you are doing, and if you can still run fine for long periods of time I'd consider it good start. If you are bored and want to practice posture aside from standing still, try goosestepping in brief shorts while maintaining stable rhythm and good posture. It's good for balance too and pretty good leg exercise and change of pace over usual training methods.

Also I assume lack of collar tabs is work-in-progress too.  :P

I know that sounds ridiculous but try goosestepping in good rhythm and posture for say, ten minutes. It's pretty demanding on one's legs and can add passable variation alongside other physical training.

Needless to say it's best to avoid doing that anywhere in public unless you like some funny looks.  :P

Crossbows are for untrained plebs. Bows all the way.

But seriously, how does one operate bows in re-enactment? Aren't they like, lethal?
I mean, I am an archers, and if you want to go full historical, there is no way a 120 pound bow is NOT going to hurt someone.
Title: Re: Reenactment Pictures.
Post by: Ililsa on September 08, 2014, 07:23:37 pm
Bows are limited to about 30 pounds for most events and battles.

You can also see the type of 'arrowhead' we use in the foreground of that picture. Completely blunt and pretty wide, with a bit of give behind the point of it so it's not a completely solid force hitting you.

And you ear safety glasses? Even a 30 pound bow will fuck your eyes up.
I know there are always risks, but in the heat of a re-enactment and when your back muscles start to ache, a chance fo a technical error is huge, and then your arrow will definitely fly off course.
Title: Re: Reenactment Pictures.
Post by: Ililsa on September 08, 2014, 07:43:52 pm
Nope. It's a rare case of authenticity trumping safety, open faced helmets mean you just duck your head if someone fires a volley. I'm fairly sure it's only clout shooting in battles anyway.

Though we did an archery display at the tournament, hence at the practice, and the shooters were shooting straight at Knights, though because they were in barrel helms it was easy to conceal some resistant lab goggles underneath them.

Nice, pretty damn nice actaully. Would've expected far less than 30 pounds, to be honoust.
Anyways, one last question and I'll get of yer arse.

Is it generally that you just protray an archer of the period and pick up a bow? Or does it generally attract people who know how to shoot one to being with? Or do they teach you?

Couldn't say, I'm a terrible archer. Most people who are into it will probably buy themselves a period bow and practice with it though. My group only started doing it properly because English Heritage wanted an archery round to the tournament, we've a couple of really good archers and some that are just enthusiastic.

Anyone interested in my group arrives about an hour early for practice, there's generally a bit of advice given but we don't take it as seriously as we do the melee stuff.

Which is completely understandable since war- and longbows aren't made for accuracy.

Downside of being so close: the surcotes look terrible. EH provided them though, they're not our usual stuff. Pretty sure they're made of like, cotton and felt.
Same with the shields. We actually repainted a load of Heater shields because all EH had was flat top kites. Fine for me and the other 'men at arms' but farb central for 13th century knights.

Either way, at least I got caught in a cool pose.

That's cool. Can you explain the story behind the artwork on your shield? My first impression was "oh a turk" but I'm sure you aren't a turk.
Title: Re: Reenactment Pictures.
Post by: Ililsa on September 10, 2014, 07:29:11 pm
No idea. English Heritage gave us the matching surcotes and shields so we'd look like teams rather than the jumbled mess we usually do (admittedly we try to colour co-ordinate.)
I did wonder if it was an actual historical coat of arms, but I haven't found it anywhere, so it's likely that EH just made them up for these tourneys.

Shame really, though some of the coats of arms on our Knights' personal shields have a story to them, even if it's just a reference to William Marshal.

Those three Crescents do look turkish as hell though. I actually bought a t-shirt with them on after the event, though. Gotta represent.

Tell the fatty second to left to sew up his trousers. He'd get his ass beat if an officer saw that. Tell him to buy a piece of feldgrau wool or US parachute silk and use it as a patch.

he'll flick you off and say "Paul Hausser reported our division completely destoryed, therefore the 275th were not able to get supplies for awhile. Fucking SS swine."   

Anyway, I did think about that but since he's our authenticity officer. I'm gonna leave him alone. I would use feldgrau wool. Not those fucking fatborne elite scarf. 

edit: Just realized we did have a special impression for this event. Very specific timeframe of 275th after Falaise pocket. That's why you would see torn trouser, unshavened faces and absolutely flithy uniform.

Hmmmm, not sure what to suggest, I just did a bit of looking and can't find much, maybe the 86th Leinster regiment of foot though the website I found was quite old, would you be able to get to any events in England or are you limited to just events in NI?

Second pic: "u wnt sum fuk, comrade?"

Here's a pic of me being a farb at my last event this year.

We do a 'black knight' as a sideshow for kids to fight. Hence why it's farby as fuck. No idea what's even going on with my boots.
What is weird is how short (which I am, but not to that extent) and dumpy (which I ain't) that surcotte makes me look.

On the complete other end of the scale to that later period helmet and cotton surcotte, here's Sir Richard knighting the kid that repeatedly smacked me in the face with that LARP sword on the rack.

I'm still gonna get some pictures of my own helmet up now that the show season's over, just to show what sort of damage gets done over two months, but right now my internet's dropped into 1980s speeds, so I can't upload anything.

Landrick and I met up at some small time (crap) reenactment in Reno Nevada around this time last year. Back when I was fat. Im the farthest left with the light colorwed forage cap and Landrick has the gray bed roll in the centerish.

Though I don't like this man at all..

He was the driving force behind laying special retarded rules towards woman that want to reenact;

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11240073/RULES%20%20REGULATIONS%20GOVERNING%20THE%20PARTICIPATION%20OF%20WOMEN%20IN%20A%20MALE%20MILITARY%20ROLE%20WITHIN%20THE%20FORCES%20OF%20THE%20ALLIED%20POWERS.pdf

Yeah that age old discussion.. I find it extremely stupid, if woman should not be allowed because they might have a big front bumper or too big bum or too long hair then he should not be allowed because he is too fat to historical acuratly reenact a french soldier.


I mean seriously read that document, like they have to completely grow a 3rd leg, whilst many too old or too fat men etc are reenacting which is extremely unrealistic..

Did he? He seemed perfectly fine at Montmirail, didn't mention anything about the ladies, dunno whether his attitudes have changed since 2011, seemed a very nice guy to me.

You sure it weren't someone else who wrote it and Marc just translated it into English? He does that sometimes I think

Post by: Vincenzo on October 06, 2014, 11:31:11 am
A lady in the 85eme was certain Marc wrote it and send her when she wanted to participate in an event.

Perhaps he has changed, but it's quite insane.

Sometimes I cringe looking at British officers.

Why must they be so pompous and overly decorated, simplicity looks so much better like the fellow on the right here (https://i.imgur.com/6WTjn.jpg)

Because most of em are pompous :)

Heres a fight between the Capitaine of the 45e, Duncan, against a 95th officer. No gentlemanly dueling here, Duncan fought dirty!

Sleeping on watch? Fritz makes a good target

We were fighting the americans, so we knew we could sleep peacefully because Americans don't fight until 1pm because they need their McDonald fix first.

And it was half pit because those guys arrived like 8:30 pm, digging in the dark. They pretty much went like "Fuck it" when they realized the event ends next day though.

2. Your rifles are too far away from your persons, realistcally... your reaction time would be hindered in the case of an attack by fat GI's.
3. Your "whatever hole" is too shitty, you need to dig deeper so you can both fit into so that only your head pop out if you sit...
4. I hope whoever is wearing the sumpftarn gave the dude using a Luftwaffe blue blanket a blowjob, otherwise it's not real war.

The entire thing was a fucking joke, Jesus Christ... Apparently, sarcasm is a lost language. :'(

Either way, in regards to boots, sleeping without them is actually far better for you. The hobnails freeze and cause your feet to be cold. Wrapping them in more blankets doesn't actually do shit. The hobnails will still cause them temp in your feet to drop and cause hypothermia or frostbite. My first reenactment, it happened to me... So, I'm not speaking from my ass... I was also in a zelt, wrapped in three blankets, and sleeping in 20 degree night after it rained.

If you're wearing fusslappen, you are indeed better off. But, it's just the damn hobnails. They literally freeze up and not only damage your boots, but your feet as well. I'm not trying to sound like an asshole in regards to this, I'm just looking out for the safety of my fellow reenactor.

Here are some pictures from GAP 1 back in the end of January... I'm sporting a 45 pound weight loss, and looking way better and more "correct" for a soldier. Also, there are some general picture of the event that I loved in this batch...

FIG "Battle of the Bulge" Event 2015, morning formation before the battle on Friday. (I am the tallest one in the center with my toque up and scarf wrapped and tucked into my belt.)

Just an FYI about how I wear my scarf, I HAVE seen original photos of this being done the way I do it... I had to deal with multiple people telling me I wore a fucking scarf "wrong" for ffs... That event was so full of farby assholes who didn't know shit, fucking mother fuckers...
The haircut I got for the event, I call it the "Fuck you, I had lice" haircut, aka "The Pre-War".

One plus side of it being at Wollaton Hall is that there'll be a magical thing called a crowd!!!!!!!! And by a crowd, when we were last there, over the weekend we had 30000 people watching. More than the 30 BotN has got in the past few years!

It was over both days. We were stunned actually because of the sheer size of the crowd! The weekend's weather was absolutely perfect, beautiful sunshine all weekend and a bank holiday weekend so everyone was off work! Wollaton is just outside Nottingham City Centre so it was easily accessible and people came to watch! Let's hope they've booked enough catering! lol

This picture is weird. The two units featured here have hated each other for almost a decade, to the point in which we refused to participate in their events, and vice versa, regardless of how awesome they were. And here we are now, finally over that decade old bullshit and forming together.

Post by: Mr T on May 31, 2015, 01:39:02 pm
Camp beds and blankets and whatever the person needs to feel comfortable, there's a lot of older blokes with bad backs!
We don't have straw at events over here, mainly because the event organizers aren't usually reenactors and it's a hassle to get hold of the straw and then dispose of it after an event.

Post by: Forest on June 01, 2015, 04:19:15 am
No straw? lol. Gotta avoid those farbtastic sleeping bags! I seriously stock up on the straw in my tent, but I usually don't even sleep in my tent. I sleep fireside mostly.
Title: Re: Reenactment Pictures.
Post by: Olafson on June 01, 2015, 09:10:35 am
Almost no one sleeping outside of a tent, or in selfmade shelters here. Selfmade shelters are more of a problem of material availability though. I guess more people would make them if there was more material around that you could use.

I do not like modern sleeping equipment in the tent. (Camp beds, lamps etc.) although, on cold weather, a sleeping bag is fine, as long as you cover it with something else, so the public wont see it.
I generally avoid using this stuff though, I decided to only sleep on the straw with a few blankets, or if there is no straw, directly on the ground.

I am not a big fan of big tents either, you know the stuff that people put up to sit under, in case it is raining.
Normal tents are okay, they would have had these on occasions, but this big tents that are just there to sit under? They look stupid and I bet that they are 100% inaccurate the way that they are used at the moment. Maybe the general staff had stuff like this, but I do not think that a normal soldier would have had tents like that. Afterall, most of the time, they wouldn't have had any tents at all.

That really bothered me when I was in GB last time. Everyone was using modern camp beds, and there were plastic planes looking out of the tents everywhere. But that is what you get when there is no straw available.

Just went to a pretty cool Falaise Gap/Normandie '44 event this weekend, actually got to meet Munk for the first time, was pretty cool. I only took these three pics, though...

This picture of me I had taken of me at the end of the event. I captioned it like this:
"A disheveled landser of the sturmpionier tries to recuperate from weeks of constant fighting and field work."

At the same time though, it could also be like I was captured, since I'm stripped down of gear and "casual." Been having people tell me it looks like an original photo and shit too... Pretty damn awesome. I'm actually a 12thSS attached Sturmpionier, and my gear was rigged with pionier equipment bags and ruck.
Pic of me...

That's not my musket. I try to keep mine as clean as possible, but the bess picks up moisture like crazy. That guy has a charleville and those are easier to clean and maintain, so I'm pretty surprised by its rustiness. I'll just assume its old. As an infantry private, if your musket has no pitting on the metal what so ever, you might as well wear a hooded sweatshirt in the field because that's farby as hell.

There's always gonna be dirt and rust on a musket, that's okay. But I just can't understand people that make it look like it was burried underneath the ground for 20 years.

Anyway, the muskets in my unit look like absolute crap, they sure as hell aren't being cleaned properly enough. Luckily, I'm in the process of buying my very own Charleville soon so I won't have to deal with rusty crap guns that others before me refused to clean. Yes, that\s right most people in my unit don't have their own guns, we all use depot weapons.

I still think it is what we in Germany call "brüniert" - google says the translation is blued but that ain't what I mean. The historical version might let the barrel look completly rusted while modern "blued" guns are mostly black. The purpose is to have less afford in cleaning. It was very common with Riflemen (the polished baker rifle in my KGL unit and with the 95th rifles are just authentic for parades) and I think that also fits with an American Militiaman or whoever this guys portrays

I actually met Munk for the first time at this event, it's good to see my fellow FSE forumites from time to time at events and socialize in person. I reenact an attached sturmpionier to the 29.SS Pz.Gren.Reg. in the 12.SS Pz.D. "Hitlerjugend." While I am not in kit, this was a quick shot I had taken of me. I asked people on the Facebook Living History group to caption this, and so many said this looks like I'm a captured SS trooper being photographed by an American war correspondent before I get executed, haha. What do you guys think? I decolorized the photo then recolorized it for that "authentic photo" look.

Arier? Lol. It's a grown in period-correct haircut. I simulated two weeks of being in the field, which included no shaving for two weeks (luckily my facial hair growth is slow so it wasn't an overbearing two week beard), didn't touch up my hair after getting it cut two weeks before in a proper haircut, didn't shower for three days before the event (to simulate filth from the field)... The picture you see is a combination of these things and two days and a night in a forest with super hot temps. I was constantly sweating, doing pionier work, sentry detail, hiding in bushes, etc. I did the best I can to simulate the look and the result was perfect.

It's entirely my own stuff except the maille, which I borrowed to properly portray an armoured sergeant. The red cross is because we're fighting for Lord Edward (later Edward I) not because we're medics. I also got some nice things for living history there, which I'll stick in the buying things thread.

What is that camouflage of your trousers called? I can't remember a SS-camouflage like this. It looks more italian for me  :-X Like the 1929 Telo Mimetico which was used for selfmade clothes after the capitulation of Italy.  ???

You said it yourself, M29 Tello Memetico... I use it for 12thSS impressions, as they had huge stocks of captured camo patterns and huge mixed of Dot 44 and Italian Camo.

Title: Re: Reenactment Pictures.
Post by: Black Watch 1745 on October 18, 2015, 02:24:48 pm
I may add with the 44th as well is that when we were formed we covered the period 1803-1812. It was only a year or two ago, in the run up to Waterloo we had to change our white trousers to grey and get Belgic Shakos (we are also using the pre-1812 tunics, the 44ths buttons were different on the later ones and, whilst it may not be noticeable, the back of the later tunics were slightly shorter). It would cost quite a bit for the officers in our group to get new tunics so many kept wearing their old ones. Initially the same for the drummers as, before 1812, drummers (apart from the Royal Regiments and the Guards) wore reversed colours, after 1812 they were in red but still had the lace. Most of our drummers seem to have switched now to the post 1812 uniforms. Sadly, finance is always at odds with accuracy.
  Most Officers from the post 1812 groups I see are wearing the shako (you can see two in the picture). Senior officers still wore them and even some junior officers at Waterloo but they were rarer, more for generals, staff officers and support units.
Title: Re: Reenactment Pictures.
Post by: joer5835 on October 18, 2015, 04:48:03 pm
I guess if you put it like that it makes sense, I will still find the bicornes weird but I can accept it then. My unit too had to completely change our uniforms for Waterloo and finances always remains a bitch. Especially when your new uniform is so completely different from your old one.

Shameless self advertising. Myself in full gear (excluding breadbag though) and even a backpack, which is something we don't usually wear. This is my 1795-1806 uniform with fitting ponytail wig, which you sadly can't see from this angle. This was taken is in the garden of the Rotterdam city hall last saturday. Last saturday the Dutch marine corps celebrated it's 350 year anniversary with a ceremony and a parade. And my group provided a historical background, with marine uniforms from 1665 to 1830. So yeah, me and my unit spent two hours as living, historical decorations during an official marine corps parade. And the king of the Netherlands was there as well, standing at perhaps a few meters away from us during the entire happening.

Little video, you can clearly see our heads (https://www.facebook.com/Commandantderstrijdkrachten/videos/778489968945082/)

Gotta say, it's pretty special to be asked as a reenactment society to provide a tableau vivant for the Marine Corps. Now, as I said, my apology for the self advertisement :P

isn't it awkward to shoulder arms with your bicorne tilted to the right like that? Do you perform the "comme sergent" instead? In the late 18th century it was common for soldiers, especially when it was regulation like for the British, to place the center of the front over the left eye, to accommodate the length of the musket.

Even worse. Look at this. Not a single dude has a backpack. But for the 69. The guy leading them has no leatherworks whatsoever and carries the gun in the wrong hand. Why do you put the guy with the pokaelm in the front line? Why do half of the guys wear modern shoes without anything to hide them (i.e. gaitors). Not saying that modern shoes are good, but at lest try to hide them. Looking at the 69e, it seems that they are in "attention" (do not know how to say this), but no one else seems to care about it?
Why are the genie (red guy in the center) in the center of the line? Shouldn't they be on the right? Why do none of the drummers of the 45 have shakos? Why are they in parade dress, but without backpack? Why is the trouser for the 85 guy brown? Why does he have this greatcoat open like a retard? Just noticed that there is a guy with a yellow-green "grenade" pompom in the center of the line. What does this mean? If he is light infantry he should be to the left. If he is line inantry he should have a different pompom.
Maybe I am wrong, but aren't some of the 45 wearing their white shako thingies (i forgot the word, you know this things that hang down the shako) backwards?

And a point about the 69e. I hate those greatcoat sacks. I do not think that they are historical and I hate the look of them. But other than that they look fine to me. A bit to clean, but whatever.

I can see in one line that some are wearing pokalems, while others are wearing shakos and some are wearing greatcoats while others are not. Should an infantry regiment be as irregular as this? And they are from the same regiment (85th).

Post by: Olafson on April 04, 2016, 05:36:49 pm
No. This is what I do not understand either. Either all go in blue, all in white or all in greatcoat. It would be super uncommon in a battle or in a parade to be able to wear what you want. You maybe do that on the march, or in the camp (but even there you need to follow the regulations), but you would not do it in this case.

If everyone has a greatcoat, go in greatcoat. It makes more sense anyway. Most of the time people would do stuff in their greatcoat. Why get your parade gear dirty...
About the pokalem, he should be standing in the 2nd line, somewhere where no one can see him. Instead he is in the front rank. No reason for that.

About the exercise, as far as I can remember. Though I am not sure if it is official regulations, the "Drill Inspector" that is doing the exercise for the day and all higher ranking officers wear blue with a shako during training. Only the normal ranker wears white with pokalem.

In french, "cordon-raquette". But it makes no sense to wear it during an exercise, considering it's a parade item. Was sometimes wore in great battles but 99% of the time in the backpack...

And a point about the 69e. I hate those greatcoat sacks. I do not think that they are historical and I hate the look of them. But other than that they look fine to me. A bit to clean, but whatever.

They are saving the day yep, and firstly by their attention when everyone seems to be kids. But indeed their greatcoats are not historical, moreover for voltigeurs in a line regiment.

And the musket banderole on the right. The guy with the polished cartrige box has his bayonet on the wrong side : considering he has a sabre briquet, it should be with it.

About the "cordon-raquette", yes it is a parade item and I have complained about it earlier. They should obviously not have it at all, but if they wear it, wear it correctly!

Actually I have read that every soldier, including the ones that carry Sabre Briquets  carry their bayonet on the right side, on the Cartridge box sling.
Besides that... Soldiers would have their bayonet attached to the musket 99% of the time anyway.

Reminds me of something that happened last year. My unit was doing a drill and we had a little rest for 10 minutes. So I was watching another unit do a drill, a Scottish unit. One of their guys had the hammer of his musket FULLY COCKED and his frizzen open! And his sergeant kept walking past, correcting the line but he didn't say anything about the position of the guy's lock. This went on for 10 minutes straight, all the while I and some other people from my unit were almost placing bets on how long it would take for somone to notice. Eventually nobody said a thing and after a while I saw the guy walk back to camp, still with his hammer on full cock and his pan exposed.

Even if some of the items of the 69th aren't accurate (I know for a fact that their habites are wrong), they have a serious attitude that puts them well ahead of other regiments. Great if you have historical accurate items, but wearing them in a wrong way or at wrong times still makes the entire picture wrong.

Greatcoats are love, greatcoats are life.

While historically the collar should be closed, it is often impossible to do so, due to the collar just being way to tight.

I can also imagine that a lot of people would not have been able to close the collar either. After all, they did not get custom made uniforms, but only had them issued in 3 sizes or so.

You can't close it, no hooks. Besides, I am pretty sure it is made too tight.

As for the shoes, yeah that's honestly on the bottom of my 'to buy' list. I recently bought a musket and a new tailcoat is in the making, once I have some money again, I'll get to getting some shoes.

Been seeing all these photos on FB..UK next year cant wait!!! Would you happen to know if there is a month normally when there are a few events in the same month?

Post by: Mr T on May 06, 2016, 10:05:47 am
April or May I expect, probably May. Like this year there was Cannon Hall at the start of this month and there will be another one at the end of the month on the second bank holiday. Usually there's a 3-4 week gap. Not 100% sure for events next year yet but I expect there will be 2 reenactments minimum in May since it has 2 bank holidays, might be additional ones like I think there's one this weekend coming up with the NA. It just depends how long you're in the UK I guess!

Well. We were going to. And I still hope that we can.

But the guy that was supposed to register us apparently screwed up and forgot. So now we are not signed in.

Not entirely clear yet, no one seems to know anything. I am really pissed.

I also wore gloves (without fingertips) into battle. To keep my hands more or less clean and to protect my hands against burns and cuts from the flint.
But I was carrying a gun ofc, not sure why he needs them.

I probably will be in Jena - although we are doing light KGL and the organizer only wants 1806 styled french, prussian and saxon troops. I think sometimes it helps to be in an old and well known reenactmentclub  ::) Also our uniforms might look a bit like the prussian fusiliers for some not so well knowing persons

which is a bit .... Nah, I don't say anything.  :-X I won't be at Jena, cause I am 1813 and the week after is Leipzig, which will be much smaller caused by Jena....  :(
Also my unit had some problems back in 2006, where even Landwehr took part in the battle. Probably, because the Landwehr were in a big prussian line, where the rest have worn shako withouth Cover.  >:(

(beside, there was only one proper 1806 line back there, the other 2 where the Landwehr-Line-Infantry and a mixed line containing 1813 Prussian guard, 1806/1813 Saxon Guard and a 7-year-wars-line)

So, since the reenactment season is pretty much over for this year (I am not going to Austerlitz), here are some pictures from some of this years events in order.

1st Drill event in January, with our old equipment...

Another Drill event in Gravelines, it was the worst shit ever, not ever going there again... But hey, first time we used our new habit-veste, trousers and proper shako covers

Civil War event in Walldürn in early spring. Great weather and great event. Excuse our Paki gear tho.. Were getting it changed.

Our camp, cooking breakfast (i.e. warming up the remains from dinner) and rolling cartridges.

I know the skirmish drill is wrong, we found out after the event... We are doing it correctly now. It was our first CW event anyway...

Verdun. Wow. It was so crap. We left after 10 hours. Apparently we weren't allowed to make a fire (EVEN THOUGH THEY ASKED US HOW MUCH FIREWOOD WE NEED WTF?), so we couldn't cook any food for our self... We made a fire anyway and a french dude showed up and started insulting us and demanded to take the fire down... Then it started raining all night, I woke up with a 2cm deep puddle on my blanket... We left shortly afterwards, not to spoil all the food we brought that we now could not eat.
Packing up for Verdun.

Torgau. WW1 Event. It was weirdly organized, but the location was great. We had a small skirmish which was fun.

Jena. A really great event, probably one of the best this year. On saturday we grouped up with the 22e and moved out to find some Saxons that were apparently hiding in Cospeda. We did not find them, but had a great time nonetheless. Because we moved out so early, we had to wait 4 hours for the remaining French troops to arrive, which we used wisely by drinking beer and eating bread, sausages and bacon. For some reason our battalion commander decided to split us up, and we were put into the voltigeur company, while the 22e was in the first line company. Moving as voltigeurs with this kind of drill was our first time, but it was fun.
Leaving the camp in the early morning.

Last event this year, Archeon. We only took part on Sunday, it was quite fun, the battle was kinda stupid, but hey, we got to shoot guns, do some drill and hunt chicken, so what else do you want!

I knew it! I somehow knew that you are the dude in the greatcoat :P

Yeah that is us (tho missing 2), running. I believe I saw this before, but in a video. I am the guy in the center, without the bayonet. My bayonet lug was broken off, so I couldn't fix it. Sad times. The tall guy to the right is Admiral.

Not the last time we ran that day... :P 3 of us (me included) deserted after the battle was over. We basically turned around and ran away. That was fun. The captain saw it and was kinda pissed, then told my brother to catch us. My brother said yes, ran after us and deserted too. Hahaha
