Well, I have to be honest but the GWHS Fall Battle was a bit of a bore for me. First, for a variety of reasons, none of other unit members showed up so it was just me. Also, work on the bunker has hit a series of snags to some corrective work will need to be done before we can go further. Finally, with a messed up right arm (severe muscle strain), I was unable to do much in the way of moving with the rifle, wielding a pistol, or throwing grenades so I remained in a defensive position for most of the battle. I wasn't even able to get pictures since my camera battery died unexpectedly.
I spent most of the battle in a bunker with the one lone member of the 1st Jaeger Batallion so together, we represented Bavaria. The battle wound up ending early, around 9:30 pm or so (the norm is usually midnight or thereabouts), and that was it. Overall, it was pretty much a waste of time. Hopefully things will go better in the spring.
This blog is dedicated to the preservation of the heritage of the German cavalry soldier during the First World War and the years immediately before and in particular, the 2 Chevauleger Regiment of the Bavarian Army. Our approach is primarily through the use of living history where we strive to recreate the material culture as closely as possible and give a depiction of the regiment during the First World War era. Comments are welcome that are appropriate to the focus of this blog. Horrido!
