Many people get their start in WWII reenacting by attending an event.
Quite a few people have started out at their first event by taking on the role of a Civilian Partisan , Why? primarily because it permits attendance at the event with the lowest initial investment.
Putting together a good 1940s civilian impression is not difficult, typically a visit to value village is all that is needed .
Partisans do not require a lot of weapons, they do most of their work by stealth and careful planning , so even a pistol is often enough.
Operation woodsman is coming up in Mid September , If you are interested in attending send me a message
