Let's discuss: Buying things!

These insults are a direct declaration of war! Forward, my cavalry!

Literally, the first time the Dutch were resprented in the Edinurgh Military Tattoo was on bikes. Every country being serious, the Dutch coming in those uniforms and with their intruments on bikes.
Were still better than the British horseguards, but still. Fucking. Bikes.

The 'Regiment Wielrijders' is probably the most unique part of our military heritage, and while it may appear silly in 2014, in 1940, it certainly was not.

For the WWII German reenactors:

Where's the best place to get WWII German medical equipment, gear, uniform accessories, armbands, etc.? An underage recruit in the unit I am in would like to be a Sani until he can wield a rifle legally at events or until he can get one. Research is for him, but I'm helping out.

Check out ostfront militaria on ebay, tons of unissued original first aid kits and stuff. I saw a real nice box filled with all medical junk for 60 or 70 bucks.

That is some nice poster you got on your wall

Too bad you're blocked from the only ACW event in Netherland. 

[Olafson]

Which is stupid. Confederate Drill camp only. Everyone who does union has to go and do their own thing.
Come on.. Its not like the European ACW community is very large.

[Duuring]

No we're not bringing that discussion on to the forum. I forbid it.

[joer5835]

I didn't even know this, that is just...just....

Alright I wont speak about it, Master Duuring.

[Vincenzo]

Well fine we will have events in Germany then, and There are plans to make our own event in the Netherlands.

[Olafson]

No we're not bringing that discussion on to the forum. I forbid it.

Why not?

[DeoVindice61]

Duuring forbid it? Good.

It's not silly in my opinion. It's only silly because it happen to be only ACW event in Netherlands. I do understand vince's fustration but to be fair, We also have those union or confed only event to perform drilling and such. You guys can simply drive over to Germany to do that union only drill weekend or create your own event in NL. In fact that probably is the best idea, now the only acw event expanded to two events in NL and someday you never know that group will actually notice you guys as dedicated reenactors, and wish to do a battle. Ta-da you have 3 events in NL. ACW grows. Happy day for everyone except dedicated Napoleonic fanatic who believe ACW is degenerate time of war.
