WW2 Allied Re-enactment group- "WARGROUP"

If your heart skips a beat when you watch a WW2 movie, if you are fascinated by the history of the struggle between the axis and allies, the fight for the freedom of most of the world between 1939 and 1945, if you respect the memory of the many many thousands of men and women on all sides who gave up their lives fighting for their countries, then you'll love our group!

Our website gives you more information about our re-enactment work, historical facts about the original units we portray, and general information about the Allied army soldiers and their equipment

 

But don't just stay online, come visit us at one of our shows, watch the battles, chat to the lads and ladies and have great craic!!
