@izzythepush,
Quote:I never knew you did Civil War reenactment. At least you're being honest for once.
The bar owner took part in civil war reenactments not me and the nearest I came to playing war games was in an ultralight aircraft bombing contest I took part in at a fly in many years ago.
Oh I and my flying group sometimes would pretended to be WW1 flyers and did mock runs on hot air balloons as the WWI aces did in attacking observation balloons.
Now why would someone need to be honest about taking part in such a historic reenactments in any case?
I remember hearing that such reenactments of battles are not unknown on your island as a matter of fact.
Hmm are you implying that anyone who would take part in the US civil war reenactments are racists perhaps?
Given that there are people of all colors and races taking part in the civil war reenactments including black men playing the part of the Union War black troops that would be hard for anyone to try to pull off but please feel free to try to do so.
Not to mention that at the cost of 800,000 lives or so on both sides that war ended slavery in the US.
