Doing it on MLK day certainly can't be an accident either, and probably gives some insight into their motivations.

Y'all need to lighten up. It doesn't say they were 88'ers.  (which, even that would be their right and their business).

They're reenactors. You realize that people dress up like Confederates, Indians, Bushi, all kinds of historically oppressive characters. But, for some reason, dress up in a Nazi uniform and people get their panties all bunched up.
I think that there is a difference between participating in a re-enactment of WWII and attending dinner at a German restaurant dressed as a Nazi.  It doesn't really bother me and I certainly don't think they're 88ers, but it is one of the things that makes you go "Wow, what a titanically bad business decision."

Dressing up like a Nazi is one thing. To do it on MLK day is certainly sending a message.

It's called The Holocaust.  


Yet Confederates (Slavery), American Cavalry (Trail of Tears), European Colonianists (Slavery/Apartheid/Etc), Soviet Soldiers (Any non-Russo ethnic group/Jews) are all A-OK?!

Well, now, how do you arrive at that conclusion? I'm guessing, from your screen name, that you're more sensitive to the Nazi thing than other historical oppressors. (not trying to slam you  AT ALL). If so, you have every right to be offended that someone would enjoy reenacting something Nazi. Same as black folks are understandably miffed at confederate reenactors. Oddly enough, I don't see a lot of outcry from the Jewish community when someone dresses as a Pharaoh.

Lots of people throwing around "Its their right". Saying that presumes the government got involved and told them they could not do this. That is not the case, no one said they should not be aloud to do this as far as I can see on here. Just people saying they look stupid, which is their right as well. Its just some Twitter Twat taking a cell pic and trying to make a big story out of it, which seems to have succeeded.

Not my cup of tea, but they are just harmless reenactors. I would bet this was in one of those back private rooms like community groups use for dinner meetings and such. Never intended to be a public event. I kind of doubt the owner has a sign out front advertising nazi night.

It's funny when you get the context how little this really matters.

But leave that out of the headline and image and it changes things considerably.  Almost like that drawing of the hideous woman, but if you stare at it a bit longer it's a beautiful woman with long hair.

As U.S. military retired, I would not want to be in any reenactment that involved wearing a uniform other than a U.S. military uniform.  

Now I have a friend who is in a civil war reenactment outfit of union artillerymen.   They have some damn realistic looking union uniforms and a couple of cannon and casons.   Some of the group had ancestors who fought for the union as a matter of fact.   One thing I found out from talking to them is that both union and confederate formations often had unique uniforms that varied from each other a good bit.  

I will admit that the Germans had better looking uniforms than our guys did back in World War II.   But we still won, no?

Most reenactors do both sides.  In this case the same group would have a German setup and a Allied setup.

First thing I thought of. I'm glad I was right. That taken into consideration, I don't see the problem. I'd be a german, jap, or commie in a reenactment. It sounds both fun, you get to play with cool blank firing machine guns, and you have the satisfaction of knowing your heathen evil army loses in the end anyway.
