There are folk who think they are a great idea and no doubt folk who think there is something odd with those who participate in a re enactment of war.

There was a Vicking re enactment thing in Lismore a week or so ago...I would have gone but it was clear they were not going to do a "blood eagle" re enactement for some reason...

I wonder what the appeal is with re enactments?

I believe a lot of people are interested in history, not just reading about it but living it and reenactment is the closest thing they will get to experiencing an event. The US are proud of their history particularly the Civil War era. In the Airforce we had a couple guys into Medieval reenactment .. making their own chainmail Armour. Some people are into War reenactment using Minifigures, scale models of equipment and detailed layouts recreating battles.
