So we did, Crazy FG :)

Cool photos from the same event, but this time I'll call them 'faces of war'... (various reenactment groups, but mostly KG'E'))

All photos came from yesterdays reenactment event at Ogrodzieniec Castle. As You may guess it was about Monte Cassino.

Hope You like it - any comment about errors and things which we may improve are warm welcomed.

Todays training of the sniper team from Kampfgruppe EDELWEISS. Mr. 'Bergfuhrer' as a sniper and myself as an assistant/observer:

Sniper equipped with k98k with optical sights. Obserwer - Gew. 33/40 fur Gebirgstruppen and Dienstglass 6x30:

Its Finland or Northern Russia, early autumn 1943... Observer looks on the empty space ahead to check any movement:

The team took position in a ditch. Observer being higher profile, uses dry grass to help conceal his position:

Russian patrol is coming ! Choosing targets:

Changing position across swampy terrain:

The team chooses position up on the old hunting ladder to get better view for observation:

It was a nice day out in the woods:

Great photos guys, but the amount posted means it takes an age to load worth the wait though.

KG EDELWEISS successfully opened its new reenactment season. Our display was a part of military exhibition in Lodz, Poland, on 17th of January (Moto Weteran Bazar). Our display was based on Ostfront Scenario: winter 1942/43, somewhere in the North. The display was prepared in cooperation of our collegues of 'Kampfgruppe Adler' of the same Association, reenacting LW field units.

General view of the display, featuring (from right): display of mountain/ski equipment as well as some medic items on the side of sdkfz, MG34 with additional equipment, table covered with 'beute'/captured soviet banner with some food and drink on it, replica of GW34 with optical sights.

Image


Some details of the above:

We had lots of fun, presenting our winter uniforms:

Image
Image


We had an honour to welcome a very special guest on our display, Brigade General Roman Polko, former commander of Polish Special Forces unit GROM (eg in Iraq), specialist in airborne and special forces operations, owner of the renowned US Ranger and Pathfinder badges.

Image


We also did some photoshoot outside - Gebirgsjager's do like snow ;)

Thank you 'Papa' ! :) We try to do our best... And improve constantly... Our windblusen are too white (need some running around in the field). Any comments that might help us to get better are more than welcome.

Here's a short video taken during the photoshoot:

Photos from last weekend training with U.S. 1st Inf. Div. I knew that You cant see all the details so important to all of us, but Ive decided that it looks more "period-correct" in form presented below.

Collored ones are available at:
http://diegams.nazwa.pl/main.php?target ... _manewry02

Hope You like it - any comments are most welcome. Especially those which will help to improve level of authenticity.
