American In Nazi Uniform

Dangerous game with the history

It is not actually believe, but taken in Ohio are American citizens and to play for one of the darkest chapter of German history: the Second World War.

Their interest is less support historical research, but much more of a tactic of war and the original Nazi equipment.

Americans in Nazi uniform

It is three clock in the morning. In the border area of the U.S. states of Ohio and Indiana, the SS-Einsatzgruppen "Hohenstaufen moves" through dense woodland. Rune incorrect lettering adorn the military clothing. You hear a short, muted commands. German SS officers comb through one bank of the river in search of Allied positions. The rifle is at the ready, always ready to fire. The machine gun position can not be far off, according to map.

Another reenactment video at Rockford Illinois

What ZDF reporter Andreas Ewels in the woods near the American town experiencing Camden, is not part of filming, but dubious pastime of Americans who wins the growing popularity: the replay of battles of World War II, in which the outcome of battles, not fixed stands. Profits should any of the warring parties, the German Waffen-SS.

Trivialisation of crimes?

The game that is played here, is more complex than other paramilitary hobbies. Unlike players, Gotcha is the complete original equipment or a faithful duplicate of the weapons that were used by German soldiers in battles such as the D-Day. Up to $ 6000 to pay the participants for an SS uniform, which consists of binoculars up to the machine gun only original parts. Only the ammunition is false, shot with blank bullets.

Remorse or shame not to burden the participants. They proudly wear the Nazi uniforms of the Nazi regime and say there were only soldiers who had fulfilled their duty. And slip as men such as Ron Dowling weekend after weekend in their Nazi uniforms. Ron leads this time, the Waffen SS group "Hohenstaufen" against the allies and is hoping for a different outcome of the battle as it dictates the story.

Cool hobby?

"No," a kind of neo-Nazi he is not, says Ron. Fascinates him only the history of the Second World War and the first hand he could empathize with this replay of old battles, like the D-Day. In real life, Ron teachers of German. Apart from the language he wants his students näherbringen especially German history. Although Ron only few students can win for the world of weekend warriors who find most of his students the unusual hobby, at least cool.

Cool - the latest, at the sight of the constant companion of the camera crews this adjective to intolerable euphemism. The Leibstandarte "Adolf Hitler" the shooting monitored. One would not be pushed into the right-wing corner, said the squad leader who wants to remain unknown. His blond hair is parted in a sharp, his full uniform of the Order of the Nazi regime and his troupe sang German songs.

Even government officials playing with

The fear of being branded a Nazi, grotesque in the circumstances. In civil life of the Colonel worked as a government official. His supporters are doctors, lawyers or, like Ron, were teachers. An education or ignorance of the atrocities of the Nazi regime, and there is no shortage in Germany ", as they are all in agreement, forbidding her war game in primary Maskarade.

But Ron and the others are in America. After he shot and killed eight soldiers allied weekend "and has his SS regiment won the battle of D-Day, he will return to the classroom and teach history. German history.
