So, you're thinking about joining our group?

One of the most frequently asked questions is approximately how much money you will spend to get started in this hobby. To get the basic uniform, webbing, helmet, and rifle, it is going to cost you anywhere between $800 to $1000.  E-bay items and/or used equipment could be considerably lower in cost and allow you to save a lot of money.

You'll also need to join a WWII reenactor's organization (ie.HRS See the favorite links page). Usual dues are $15 a year.

We have loaner gear to get you started, but we will need you to have all your basic equipment within one year.

 Conditions of membership   (Membership fee of $5 a year, to go to website upkeep)

First of all, we are very safety concious. We do like to have fun but play by the 'rules of safety' first.

If you are looking for a drinking club that just wants to 'blow powder', you may want to find another unit. 

Must be at least 18 years of age to participate in reenactments. 16 or older, if accompanied by a legal guardian.

Must be able to legally own the rifle/weapons used at reenactments. No felons.

Must attend at least two voted field events to be considered for full membership.

We can provide loaner gear for you to use when you first come out. You will be expected to have at least your basic uniform and equipment within the first year.

 

We are not a group that promotes racism, bigotry, or hate of others because of race, religious preference, or gender. If any of this applies to you, you are not encouraged to join our unit.
