Hey there Drake, Something in your post reminded me of the best nights sleep I've ever had at an event. I am an EXTREMELY light sleeper (if my...
Doc-yeppir I remember Uncle Eddie's tuna cans. That got me to thinking about another vet, I believe he was in the 9th as well, finding a German...
I decided a few months back that I would bring a couple homemade K-Rations (filled with appropriate components, or at least as close as I can get...
Oh man! Airborne. I don't mind if a guy does an Airborne impression, but like your folks on your end, ours don't seem to want to get dirty. Any...
You sound like the type of guy we'd get along with and hang out with [img] Of course, we're the only ones in our group because we smell so bad,...
Great observation Stefan. Here most GI's you see look like they stepped right off the parade grounds-spotless equipment, pressed pants, clean...
I was over on another forum dealing with the US Civil War, and a discussion was going on about grooming products. Got me thinking. Of course...
Very good! Hadn't thought about the foreign aspect, although I have had some vets mention German rifle cleaning kits, personal stoves,...
Okay, for an example, I ask about food-bear in mind this is how I ask for the US vets. First, I ask which ones they recall having most experience...
You guys probably wouldn't have to push me too hard to start collecting the Wound Badges. I have a bit of a question for you. I've heard that on...
Stefan-Well, I'm hoping to just make a couple, for effect at the event. I'm just thinking the "pop" would be a nice touch. Of course afterwards...
I don't collect Wound Badges per se, but I do have 2 of them in my collection. One in particular is pretty neat. It has been "de-Nazified"...
Great. Thanks Stefan. Yes, this is SUPPOSED to be used at a reenactment. What I'd like to do is make them so that if stepped upon it'll work...
Stefan-thanks for that site. There are some really great things there. I appreciate it. You say you've made some homemade Schu mines, eh? What...
T'anks Doc and Kai! Good stuff there. Which book is it Doc?
Thanks CrazyD. I appreciate it. Great site too. I'll have to go back and read it more thoroughly. Rip
Hey all, I posted this on another thread, but I'm trying to cover all bases here. In an upcoming living history event, I'd like to have some Schu...
Anyone out there have any info, schematics, plans, etc, on the Schu mine? I'm hoping to have some built (minus the "boom" portion) for an...
Now real hard evidence, as I'm about 90% sure this was an unofficial practice. But, green marks, like the ones shown by Doc, indicated a combat...
Hey Erich, Quite true. Most "delicate" questions are not event dealt with, or if they are it is in a very vague, round about way. If the...
