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.

If you are going to join an existing Unit then they will issue you a rank. If you are starting a unit then you can give yourself any rank that you would like. Keep in mind that the Germans would take anyone that could hold a gun... so age wouldn't have meant that they would have been officers.
That's just my thoughts and others my not agree...
