Welcome to the "WWII History & Reenacting" UA-cam channel!
The main focus of this channel is primarily military history, mainly within the second world war (WW2) timeframe. The channel features various content, such as videos on metal detecting, magnet fishing, exploring and visiting historical sites, collecting militaria, reenactment, restoration etc. I'm a WW2 reenactor/living history enthusiast and many of my videos feature tutorials, kit reviews, reenactment footage and information about the hobby. I mainly portray the German side within the timeframe. Collecting militaria is a huge part of my life. Unboxing videos, collectible presentations, and collecting tips, as well as metal detecting and relic hunting are also typical videos on the channel.
This channel is strictly non-political and my videos are meant to be fun, educational, and informative
Enjoy!

i'm a young guy who just picked up his first set of reenactment gear! there wasn't any tutorials on how to pack up my tornister, but then I found your channel! I'm really glad I did cause it has helped my properly pack and wear all my gear! thank you for all your tutorials!
I Think you are one of the best reenactment youtubers in the points
•realistic
•profesionality
• Waffen SS with the appropriate respect
and Video quality
Love your Videos
Grüße aus Bremen ;-)
I agree with the first two points. But what is the Waffen-SS doing to make him to one of the best reenactment youtuber?
@@franzotto6680 I think they mean it makes him better that he isn't afraid to reenact the SS.
@@franzotto6680 most of the Wss Reenacter are american ore what else, and all wants to be crazy SS soldiers. But HE is a Norge. That makes a big differense. I also do not reenact any American soldiers
@@ethanadamrose580 People like you are the problem, because YOU are incapable of separating an appreciation of History and military equipment from supporting political ideologies. Reenactment groups who portray Nazis are very careful to NOT allow people in who want to push the Nazi ideology. Likewise, in the US, groups which portray the Confederacy in Civil War reenactments do NOT let in White Supremacists.
@@ethanadamrose580 No one cares, reenactment has nothing to do with politics. The two are separate and groups are (usually) careful not to let in neo-nazis.
Enjoy your Reenacting days, It gos so fast when your having fun :)
Yes, thanks! ❤️ It goes way too fast! Already been like 10 years! 😳
This is what reenactment is all about! Authenticity and very educational.
This looks perfect!!!
Good work!
Thank you, glad you think so! :)
Could you link the website where I can find the parka??? Thanks man your work is great.
Hey man just watching the video. And I’m gonna quote band of Brothers really quick “you need four socks minimum”
Feet, hands, neck, balls
Great video...
Very interesting looking at the German soldiers gear from WWII
Thank you! :)
Fantastic impression! Agreed on all points. I'd invest in some Fußlappen. They are far more quick to dry than socks, not difficult to put on, don't wear out as quickly, and certainly help reduce or eliminate any bad rubbing on the feet from boots.
Thank you my friend and thank you for the tip, will start using them :)
Reminds me of the old “ Junk on the bunk “ inspections we had in the Marine Corps !
The hob knob type boots where they issued to just infantry or to all across the board, in some low budget movies they look like there’s no right or left.
Greetings from Bavaria.
Little adwice from me (not a reenacter, just a Bavarian): if you play a guy from Bavaria in reenacting, don't use the French playing cards, use Bavarian ones. Bavarian usually have a different pack of playing cards
Great Video as always! Will you make a tutorial about ageing the Feldbluse?
Thank you! I have a video by the name "WWII History & Reenacting - Quick tutorial on German wwii NCO tunic", it has some ageing tec. at the end :)
You do have some aging at the end of that video, but I think many of us would like to know all the things you did, and why you did them. The aging process looks awesome (and so does the outcome)! :D
Thank you for taking the time to make this excellent video. Really enjoyed it and I hope to see another video of the event itself.
Thank you so much for the nice comment, I'm glad you liked it! :)
fantastic video mate , thank you for putting it on UA-cam .
Thank you, glad you liked it! :)
That Kharkov parka is beautiful man
could you send me a link to the manufacturer of the boots? I have a feeling that I might need a new pair soon.
were did you get this and how much did you pay?
🇳🇴 song at the beginning? Draut und drann florian greyer ??
You are to be Commended for such an excellent Achievement in Standards , I would Love to see You doing Reenacting of Historical Battles as I am sure They would be first Class , Wishing You Good Luck .
Good choice in guns and good rounded choices as well
Where do you find Vincent leather on Facebook? What's the page name?as well as the boots, the page is down.. And who made that BEAUTIFUL SS parka and lable stamps?
Where did you buy your binocular's case.
That's a lot of stuff! Good luck!
Thanks! :)
Where you found this? My grandfather die Stalingrad Dob river 1943. I have very much objects Coat Wood soldier box…etc
I did not hear where you got those boots from; i'd like to get a pair
Lederarsenal :)
This is a SUPER KIT THANKS :)
Where did you buy that particular parka? I have to admit that parka looks like high quality. Have a good day.
We’re did you get your period correct sweater and what sweater are you wearing while you’re showing everything, it looks very nice
What I would like to know is how much was the whole uniform, a complete wehrmacht soldiers uniform from the helmet to his boots? In dollars I mean, thank you.
Mein Opa, uffs der WH, war froh , dass er wieder zu Hause war von der Westfront und englischer Gefangenschaft und ihr holt, das wieder raus:)
Great video. What is the name of the company that you got your boots from? They do look very well made.
What is the cork for? I didn’t understand what you said.
Are books to show everything a solider carried Like where the Germans carried winter trench coats in there tornister even when it isn’t winter.
HI, have question for your harkov parka, it could withstand -20 degree ? the outshell is made of cloth and it is easily to clean? Thanks.
why is messkit so shiny ?. wouldent that make you easy to see. ?
I saw when you showed your gear at the end that you had no more ammo for your mp40. Did you bring more or did you not use it as much being a officer?
Where did you purchase this gear at?
BUDDY LIGHT he mentioned where he got almost everything during the video....
He bought his leather stuff here:
facebook.com/Vincents-Equipment-1638300176408576/reviews
Awesome stuff.
Thanks my friend :)
Thanks! :)
where do you keep your mp40 mag
KIMBERLY ROGERS I think he said his coat pockets
And could you make a video how to make the ID?
My friend "panzersoldat 1" (youtube channel) has some good videos on the subject.. Unfortunately i don't have the tools for stamping ID. If you are referring to the Soldbuch, that could certainly be done sometime :)
Simply wonderful video. Best channel I know of, on UA-cam! I am just wondering about one thing though - how much of the helmet is original? The shell, the liner, the paint, the whitewash, the chinstrap and the cover? :)
Thank you very much for that nice comment my friend, really appreciate it! The helmet shell is original, the rest is reproduction... :)
WWII History & Reenacting Well, I don't know anyone else that deserves brag more than you! The videos are of great quality, and they are extremely informative. They almost feel tailored to me, if you know what I mean! :D And good, the restoration looked so good, I almost thought you used a completely original helmet for re-enactment ;P
What's the music in the intro?
Wondering that too
Wow, amazing video!
I was under the impression foot wraps were usually used for jackboots by Finland, Russia and Germans (possibly other nations too), until the 80s at least? Supposedly they are better than socks when one is wearing jackboots.
Украинцы тоже любили эти побрегушки,заигрались,что теперь на самом деле, могут испытать все прелести войны,которые испытал 3 рейх
German soldier also weared footwraps instead of socks.
would like some link for the product vendor
You said in the who made your boots but i couldnt unerstand what you said. i was just curious who made them?
www.lederarsenal.com/ :)
Thanks!
Lots of stuff you do not need for a short outing....
where did you get the nivia cream from?
Great video as always!
Thanks my friend! :)
Who made the jack boots? I’m doing a reichswehr impression and would love to see if he makes the M33 reichswehr boots
Salut, la Nivea est après guerre.
Gotta admit it, they had good shit.
Very cool outfit! But I wanted to see your trench knife, and you don't have one! 😞
Thank you! 😊 I'm so sorry, I don't have one
Ehen you talk about your canteen what dies corout mean?
Are you from Denmark?
nice video, and you have good stuff
Thank you :)
guns in the last? i thought that would be the very first? My friend you just missed one thing, that is woman, otherwise your gear is quite awesome for a weekend trip in wilderness.
still waiting for the review on you parka
Why would you purposefully age the uniform? Wouldn't it make more sense for it to be brand new if you're doing reenactment? Since the real soldiers didn't run around in old uniforms!
Good channel I like lt 👍🏼
Great video:)
Danke!
Pervitin you forgot...
I usually fill up my entire gas mask can XD
@@ww2historyandreenacting LoL
Nice video! Really helping for young reenacting lover like me:) Really waiting for your next videos:) And btw where did you get that ss soldbuch is it original or a repro?
I know you got a soldbuch but just to clear this, he got it from ATF
Very nice
Thank you :)
Damned auto correct. I meant to spell it as Sturm.
That backpack looks like abit of a pain.russians might off had a better design with the potato sack they used
It's actually a good little backpack 😊 It was seldom actually carried by the soldier, it was usually kept in the baggage train.
Funny carrying a shoe brush to battle
Guy with M43 trouser: Exist
Every girl in a 5 mile radius:🤤😍😙
Although I agree I think some men would be the same but some of them would be like “Naz!” And stuff like that 😢
What would you say is the approximate total weight of all the gear?
A corkscrew? I guess that was for use during the invasion of France.
Hahahahaha
They could have worn bathroom slippers to invade France.
@@garystefanski7227 Yeah, because France was the only country to lose to the overwhelming military might of Germany during WW2. I am so glad you were here to educate me! I was under the mistaken impression that Germany had overran large parts of Europe and Africa, and was only stopped from overrunning England because of the English Channel. Boy, what a sap I was!
@@gpgpgpgp1000
1) he said france, didnt mention any other country
2) ur not special we all know what the reich did
3) imagine having a gibberish name and unironically full grammar mocking someone
That's right, he only mentioned France. Apparently he is too ignorant to know that Germany overran many countries during the Second World War. Otherwise, why would he single out France, who fought just as hard as anyone against the Germans, and continued to fight on after surrender with the armed forces of allied countries as well as the French underground.
You say I'm not special? No shit, but i know a lot more than dumbshits who mock the French.
You bet your ass I am going to mock relentlessly dumbfucks who think that only the French lost to the Germans.
Awesome video! Makes my impression really look bad.. lol I'm stepping mine up for sure... wish I had an original MP40 though. Nice weapon!
Thanks my friend, glad you liked the video! :) Yes, the MP40 is a beautiful weapon! Glad I inspire you to upgrade your gear, although yours isn't bad :)
Looks like you're in Denmark, or going there. Can it be a working MP40?
Did you delete all your vids or was it cheeky UA-cam being mean?
Paul you are missed !
mp40 and mp41 my fav ww2 german weapons
Dont you carry any MP 40 Magazine pouches`?
Glad to see I wasnt the only one puzzled
He does. Watch his other packing video.
Always respect WW2 German infantry
Yes
but unfortunately a lot of them was bad soldiers not good
@@justhimo2728 most of German are good people only they have bad leaders during that time .
@@justhimo2728 Lot of Germans , were forced to join the army or go work in work camps until you die, or force your family to work camps because you won't fight for the father land. Most men just volunteer to avoid their family or themselves being sent a work camp. There were underground movement working against the Nazi in Germany
@@jamesrichardson3322 They were never sent to work camps should they not have enlisted, they were drafted into the Army. Should they have denied the draft and attempted to escape, then they may have been imprisoned or executed for desertion. German families were never sent to Concentration Camps unless suspected of treason, or if they were working with "enemies of the Reich."
All the things that were wraped in brown paper made me happy
I'm glad to hear that William :)
Hello. While I am not a reenactor, I like to use much of the WW-2 type German, Russian, US, and UK grear. I have some M-43 trousers from Lost Battalions that I use in winter. They are great and I like the stirup system at the bottoms that works so well with ankle boots or pull on boots. The use of canvas gaiters and ankle boots, brought about a very common sense trouser that made the requirement of lacing boots and putting on canvas gaiters much faster and easier. Pull on boots of course work fine also, and I like them better in any case. I like the real wool over all the polar fleese and other man made synthethic fibers. Also you leather treatment that you demonstrated is the best I have ever used. I am a retired 100% service connected disabled combat veteran. I enjoy learning about other kinds of great and clothing used by other armies and I like the natural fibers far better than so much of junkola stuff that is being issued for clothing today. Some of the gear is of course great, but I am not a fan of cloths that melt when on fire. I entired Service back during Vietnam and retired in 2000. Your site is very interesting and informative. Great videos.
"And my field tunic, M40. from the Front. I've exchanged all the buttons for original buttons and its been artificially aged, using water, and ... fire and all that nice stuff". Using fire, that made my lol.
Please, please, please could you make some more excellent videos?
All the best.
You should do a video wearing the gear
Will do :)
Best youtube video I've seen on the subject! I couldn't find a problem with your impression if I tried. Keep up the good work man, it's good to see things done right.
Thank you very much for the positive comment and I'm glad you found the video to your liking :)
@@ww2historyandreenacting if I had a 50s camera ( tower No.1 120 its bakelite) would it be ok or should I find a period 40s us camera
I agree
I've watched this video so many times. It's such a great guideline. Passion is what drives a great impression and I can tell you have that.
Watching this after the group I am joining recommended it. Its great to see the video while taking notes and not just for fun.
Thank you! I'm happy you and your group found the video helpful 😊
@@ww2historyandreenacting yea my group recommended you and Panzersoldat1
@@chrishoatson3186 cool! I'm honored 😊
@@ww2historyandreenactingI’m joining a group soon when I’m older enough. At the moment I can but I want to wait until I can drive in a couple years
I Really love your videos, even though I am G.I. guy. I Would love to see video on your complete impression !
Thank you very much, that means alot coming from a G.I hehe ;) I'm glad you liked the video, and I will try to get around doing a full impression video soon! :)
Are SG44’s hard to come by where you live? Is it Storm Gewehre, or did I just slaughter the spelling? Lol! Very educational video. Thank you.
Strumgewehr 44 (Stg 44) or Maschinenpistole 43/44 (mp 43/44) are very rare in general due to their limited production though you can purchase Airsoft versions and mag pouches online
11:48 you are wrong buddy
Thats everyones opinion that vincent makes the best lether equipment in the word
do you need to know how to speak fluent german on not?
No, just learn basic commands and if there is an audience then try not to talk.
@@jackieodaniel4026 Danke,

I guess what happens to all the soldiers stuff like this when they die in combat.
Great video...
Very interesting looking at the German soldiers gear from WWII
I'm glad you enjoyed the video :)
Best video on an impression I’ve seen. Hopefully some day my impression will be as good as yours
Excellent impression ❤
Thank you! 😊
We’re do you get kar98 tripper clips
I use Norwegian post-war clips for re-enacting 👍😊 not sure where to find them now a days, but you could probably source some various post-war or original clips online 😊
@@ww2historyandreenacting alright thanks
What about magazine pouches for the mp 40?
I borrowed some from a friend at the event - that's why they are not there 😊
I live in Denmark 🇩🇰🇩🇰🍺🍺🥳
