Title: First time Civ. impression
Post by: Rockman on July 05, 2009, 10:19:21 PM
Just got back from helping some WWII reenactor friends, passing out flyers regarding their D-Day reenactment, at Conneaut, Ohio, at their July 4th festival.  Not really an "event" per se, but it was a chance for the Mrs. and I to try something different.  It was pretty cool to see How you WWII guys do things.  --Normally, we do Rev War & 1812 impressions.  So this was really a nice change to actually find usable clothing from thrift & antique shops. That's a real change for us! I was actually passable, excepting my 1812 style sideburns....  While at a pit stop along the way, an elderly guy came up toi me and said that I looked a lot like he did, back in '43.  Kind of gratifying, for my first time out.  I might be adding this time frame to my line up.  It's kinda cool! :laugh:
