Great War Living History at it's Finest
About Us
Our Standards
The members of IR 75 strive to create the most authentic WW1 experience possible. Our uniform and equipment standards are high. The attitude of “this is good enough” is not acceptable in our unit and is unfair to those of us who have invested considerable time and money in getting our impressions right. We do not require you to purchase from specific vendors, what we require is that the item be correct.. Since we are doing a late 1918 impression the use of late-war and ersatz items is encouraged.
DISCLAIMERS- This unit is not affiliated with nor does it sympathize with any political group.
Being in IR 75 is not cheap! An initial outlay of costs to include uniform and rifle can run upward of $1500. Although we try to keep "loaner" gear and rifles on hand, you will be expected to eventually purchase your own kit
IR 75 is not for everyone. If you have an aversion to being cold, hot, tired, sweaty, muddy, sore, scratched up or to marching, filling sandbags and freezing at night, this unit is not for you. For liability purposes you must be over the age of 18 unless you have signed parental consent. We are a physically active unit and members need to be in reasonably good health.
