Thanks for all the good tips gents. A couple more months on this diet and I'm going to dive on in and be ready for the spring season.

I do have one more question. Is there a protocol amongst reenactors about rank. I am a little long in tooth and was thinking of doing an officer impression, perhaps just as an excuse to carry a Luger as a sidearm. Would people take offense at this, or is there any protocol about rank for uniforms?

I'd rather not ruffle any feathers.
