WW1 Westfront -- This is a list for those who reenact WW1 on the West Coast of the United States. All sides are covered here and we hope it will allow the hobby to grow.

WW1 East Front -- Group for fostering the growth of Reenacting, collecting, and historical discussion of the First World War in Eastern Europe until the end of the Russian Civil War 1914-1923.

Nationality-Specific GW Reenacting Lists

Subscribe to the WW1-G Mailing List -- This list is for Great War Imperial German Reenactors. Mit Gott, für König und Vaterland!

Both reenactors and collectors are welcomed on this list. All that is really required is an interest in the Imperial German Military.

KUK1914-1918 -- A gathering place for those interested in the Austro-Hungarian Army in the First World War. A place to share ideas, pictures and information. A place for anyone interested in gaining or sharing knowledge and information. Reenactors, living historians, collectors all are welcome.

Great War Poilu -- This group is for anyone interested in reenacting part of the French Armed forces in WW1. You can expect to find information on uniforms and vendors as well as general histories and how to improve ones impression. The hope is that this list can provide a start for the many French Reenactors out there.

The WWI Belgian list! Yep, they were there and here is a list for all of you who are Belgian fans (BTW, Paul Schipper is now reproing the uniforms and kit...).

WW1-Italiano -- A list for those who are interested in the Italian soldier of the Great War. Especially those who wish to reenact this impression! If you're intrested in this often-overlooked Army, please consider joining us!

Over There -- This is an informal group for the discussion of and to create growth and interest in recreating the American Soldier in the Great War. Our focus is in particular the role of the individual Yank/Doughboy/Sammie his uniform, equipment, weapons and life in and out of the trenches.

Great War Sutlers/Vendors

Currently, we have a really great listing of sutlers here. These businesses are the best, so please visit them and tell 'em you saw it on reenactor.Net! If you have a reenactor vendor link you want on this page, please visit our Vendor Info Page.

The WW1 Reenactor Consumer Guide, as it says on its home page:

It''s a place for customers to rate their experiences with vendors servicing the WWI reenacting community. Good or bad, let's hear it. Vendor Feedback Reviews are posted only after reviewed by the webmaster. Positive reviews are posted as they are submitted, negative reviews are posted 2 weeks after submission. During this time, the vendor is sent the review in order to provide them ample time to provide us with a rebuttal. After 2 weeks if no rebuttal is received the review is posted. Vendors who do not recall the buyer are encouraged to make contact and work out the problem.

Spread the word! The WWII RCG has not only helped WWII reenacting by spreading the word about bad vendors and experiences, but it has also really helped new vendors get discovered and their businesses grow. What it really means is that if a vendor screws someone, then it will be out there for everyone to see. And yes, vendors CAN rebut feedback. Be polite, no flames and be professional!!

Great War Links from Around the World

This page contains links to many good sites that we find relevant on the 'Net. They are in no particular order, but look for us to have more quality links soon, and if you have a cool link related to WWI or German stuff that you'd like to see here, please contact e-mail me Marsh Wise.

These links are somewhat out of date and really, we're about reenacting, not covering the history of the War. I can think of no better place to find good Great War links than at the The Western Front Association's links page (I know, what a sod I am...) These folks have done an awesome job and have a very professional website. Please give them a look! {Links}

Neat Stuff

6000 Volkslieder: German and other Folksongs. Frank Petersohn's EXCELLENT web page--he has zillions of German folk songs and marching songs, not only the lyrics, but in many cases, there are MIDI files to go along with them. 97% of all the song stuff on this site comes from Frank's site--he graciously allows me to use these songs. One of the nicest people you will find on the net, Frank does not limit his page to only German songs either, there are folksongs and national anthems from around the world here. For sure, check it out!!
