Honestly an interesting time frame to research. Sorry to make you feel old but here’s some of mine.

My April  1945, 9th ID 39th IR impression at my latest public battle, and my first public battle and live fire! Did a display on ww2 USGI captures and thanks to @USCapturephotos for the guidance!

Hi all.

 

Right now I have 6 different impressions 

 

WW2 Navy Seabee/Philippines invasion 

WW2 Glider Infantry 

Vietnam Ranger/LRRP

Early Vietnam advisor

1770's Colonial Milita 

1750's French Milita 

 

I served active duty in the US Army from 09' to 17' and with the 4th Batt 9th Inf Reg.

 

Right now I'm working on a ww2 paratrooper pathfinder.  And my early nam advisor with finishing touches.  This forum I've been reading for a few years and your guys research has helped me quite a bit with refining my own equipment especially with Vietnam.

War Correspondent:

Guy on the right in you last picture.   He has one of the most impressive collections of period camara equipment I've ever seen.  I first meet him in Washington state at Fort Lewis and told him about Rockford and he came with all of his display.   Bryan it's been a minute.

Probably my favorite pictures I have of my reenacting career so far. Mostly for a joke. But still a good picture!

Yep, Bryan is a good friend of mine. We've put on joint displays, with his military photographer collection and my civilian correspondent collection...

Glad to see Bermudez is still going out in the field with the 9th. 😎

[Gear Fanatic]

Oh you know Daniel! Yah, he’s out most of the time. I’m fairly new and only been to a few events. Are you in the area?

[Gear Fanatic]

I see you did 3rd ID? Did you do the Anzio event earlier this year?

Yeah, I've known him for years, and we have attended many events together. I'm originally from Ca, but have since moved to Ga.

[Gear Fanatic]

Nice, I was actually just chatting with him today, how long ago did you know him? And when were you in CA? Pre HUSC?

Here’s a few from 2025 WWII Weekend in Reading, PA. Capital Wing APS. I’m not the photographer. 
 

Our group (CapWing APS) regularly combines efforts with a group that portrays the 454th BG, 737th BS. That group focuses upon one particular B-24 crew that was based in San Giovanni, Cerignola, Italy. The photos of the mission briefing in camp replicated the briefing for the mission on which that crew was lost. One of the men seated on the bench is a relative of one of the crew.

I'm sure that at least the tank image was already posted by my friend, However, here are my favorites from my first event last month!

At a 4th of July parade nearby.

I'll share some from the past couple events I went to

[Colonelhogan]

First is at Newville. the next  two are in Belleau Wood. Specifically the position in front of German MG positions where 3/5 attacked across the Wheat. The field is behind me. The other photo is in a shell hole in the german position behind the MG positions. Last is at La Main de Massiges. A trench line by Verdun. The hellfighters fought there.

Here’s a few from my younger years of reenacting. I do mostly US stuff, but the photo of me with the BREN gun is from my days with the 1st Polish Armoured Division, and when you have a pic that good you ride that high forever haha. The other two are U.S. infantry circa 1876 and ww2 GI somewhere in France.

Got this new one form an old event, looks very accurate, like a still from a news reel
