What Is Reenacting?
Reenacting is a rapidly growing hobby that is involving more and more people of all ages from around the world. There are almost as many reasons for participating as there are reenactors, but all share one common trait...an interest in history and the experiences of the men and women who lived that history. Outsiders may view reenactors as 'strange ducks' or 'war mongers', but ask a participant and he or she will tell you that we are drawn to this hobby to taste and feel for ourselves the experiences of those who were really there, to keep alive the memories of those who gave so much, and to honor the men and women of the era.
As for myself, I do not glorify war...far from it. War itself is the ultimate tragedy, and no one should ever have to see one. I am not some geek 'playing big boys guns'...something indefinable draws me to the era of World War II and "The Greatest Generation". And so I collect, I learn, I practice, and I participate. That is the greatest honor I can show to those who remain, and to those who gave their lives.
