We thank you for your interest in our reenactment group.We are an HRS unit with members in Indiana,Ohio,And Michigan.We portray the 6th. SS Gebirgs Division during the years 1943-1945 Although the unit was formed in Norway in 1941.The 6.SS fought on the Eastern and Western fronts.This gives our unit the option of attending events based on either.The 6.SS fought in the worst possible conditions.Having fought in cold, wet swampland as well as the Artic Circle.
In addition to educating the public in the history of WW2,it is our goal to foster a gerneral understanding of the typical German soldier,and to portray him as a man in a struggle to survive a war that he did not want.
We are not a political orginazation. No form of racism, bigotry or hate-mongering is tolerated within the unit. Anyone displaying any of this sort of attitude will be immediately expelled from the unit. WE reenact the average Waffen-SS soldier, not brownshirted SA men or Einsatzgruppen. If that is your interest, then you should look elsewhere. The 6th.SS Nord is also NOT a para-military or any sort of militia. Although we do study the combat tactics of the Waffen-SS, it is for the purpose of reenacting only. Live ammunition is never used and safety for all reenactors is always our top priority.
