Burb,
Good for you buddy!!! Spectators at small shows and large shows appreciate the re-enactment gear and it seems to make them happy. MANY vets from wars have approached me and appreciate our efforts. I've been in the CAF for fifteen years showing WWII Vintage aircraft to people and it's always been very enjoyable to share. We (CAF) have also have groups who not only work/restore present flying WWII aircraft, but are also re-enactors from all US history and dress for the shows we flew with the old planes to. Many CAF participants often truck their WWII vehicles, etc to even small shows.
