does seem a little daft as they would have been more than a little out
of place on an english station platform ?,
some people thnik the english thing dressing up as a nazi goes back to us always hankering to be the underdog, it’s said we find it attractive
and more exciting than dressing as an english or other allied soldier,
I have always had a strong interest for the german side as my best friends father was in the hiltler youth in the mid 30’s and later a fallschirmjager in ww2 until his capture and detention in england in ’44, but i am certainly no nazi,racist,zionist or other,
I just simply find that kind of thing fascinating,
i was at Bletchley Park (Station X) at the weekend for their 1940’s weekend and there was every single allied soldier represented there, too many as GI’s as far as i was concerned, but no axis forces were represented although you can find dummys dressed up as germans in the ‘enigma wireless bunker’,
I think the visitors to the park especially the veterans would find it a little disturbing,
I know myself my interest lay in the fact that my best friends father’s past was strickley tabboo and not to be talked about. he was good friends with another man in the village who was a polish airman during the war fighting here in england,
i personally think in the right context theres no harm in dressing up as a german soldier, but as i said a 1940’s train station in england is a bit odd,
