We are the premier WWII German Waffen SS reenactor unit in the mid-west USA. Please come and learn more about us.
(Forum: Members Only)| "Historical reenactment is a type of role play in which participants attempt to recreate some aspects of a historical event or period. It may be a narrowly-defined period, such as a specific war or other event, or it may be more broadly defined." - Wikipedia |

| We represent the entire 2nd Waffen-SS division "Das Reich" (We are not affiliated with Aufklarungs 1st Zug. 3rd Kompanie. 2nd SS in any way, shape, or form) in Minnesota, USA. We specialize in the "Der Führer" Regiment. |

| We are a group of dedicated reenactors, collectors and WWII enthusiasts who try to accurately portray the German Soldier (Soldat) of WWII. Try and learn our Unit Song! (Wenn Die Soldaten) |
 |
| We mainly attend public events like air-shows as part of our public education efforts, as well as the mostly private, unit-on-unit "tacticals" where we recreate specific battles or time lines in WWII fighting against other reenactor units. Sometimes these are large, public battles that have an scripted outcome, normally they are private, with the winner being those who have fought the hardest and obtained the most objectives. We travel mostly through the upper mid-west USA for events. |
 |
| As always, we are always looking for new members to swell our ranks! Be it an experienced reenactor moving to our area, or a newbie who wants to see what this whole "Reenactment thing" is all about. We are one of the largest units in the area (for either side), so there is lots of experience to draw on. |
| Any new member must be willing to strive for safety and authenticity within our unit as we pride ourselves in these areas. Personally speaking (being a WWII nut myself), I met these guys at an air-show and thought to myself "Wow, this is so cool, a grown man can do this??? Where do I sign up!". After meeting with them a few times to check them out and 'get a vibe', I decided to join. I've never looked back since and wish I had 'signed-up' years ago. It is just SO much fun... |
| The weapons, the uniforms, the equipment, the vehicles all made me want to be "a German". No "Band of Brothers" wannabe's these guys. |
