Just don't go in a german uniform!

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

So who will the French Resistance be resisting and who will the Allies be fighting? Will the Axis troops and prisoners be naked?Or does German underwear not count as uniform and will be allowed?
How can you have a WW2 enactment with no Germans in it-or is it so the French will have a chance of winning?
Imagine if all the WW2 films had all the Germans in uniform blanked out to avoid offending someone-it would make them hard to follow.
PC gone mad again!

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

The next one to suffer will be re-enactments of the War of the Roses battles - might upset the tykes:D

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

how ridiculous, i fer one won't be going anywhere near this P.C. farce.:(

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

Don't agree with the reasons but what exacltly are they enacting ? From what I've seen of the history of WW2 there were no battles between Allied & german troops on British soil, just air raids.

If they are trying to recreate Britain during the war then they don't need Germans do they ?

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

if that was to be the case,all it required was a simple explanation.;)

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

I think I'm more suprised it hasn't got that PC they let the Germans win for fear of upsetting the EU :rolleyes:

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

heres some pics from last years .... including the reenactment ...

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

Are Italian uniforms (post 42/43 or whenever they switched sides ) allowed ? , and what about if Brit of "south asian" heritage (the ones who supported the Emporer against the Raj ) turn up in 'Jap' uniforms wearing fake buck teeth , will they be turnd away ? ..... and what about if any folks in Russian uniform turn up ? will local any Cossacks/Ukrainians be allowed to stage a protest........... hate to sound like an echo (quoting Jaysay) but this is what 13 years of Labour party indoctrination /Political correctness has brought Britain too ........ just a thought , try to imagine what "Dads Army" would have been like if it had been produced during the Blair/Brown/Harmon/Straw regime :eek: :eek: ;)

Re: East Lancs War Weekend
 

If they ban ANY uniforms it should be the Aussi one where you wear baggy shorts with black socks and black shiny shoes!(see shelleaghs pictures).
Perhaps they're banning German uniforms because last year the smart dressed 'Germans' hung around outside the ladies toilets, picking up all the English women? (see photos).We can't have the Germans being 'overpaid, oversexed and over here', the Americans were enough.

Perhaps it's just a republican plot, and they don't want Prince Harry pitching up in East Lancs.
