Default War re-enactment weekend with actors in Nazi uniforms cancelled as it might cause offence

War re-enactment weekend with actors in Nazi uniforms cancelled as it might cause offence

A railway which puts on a World War Two re-enactment weekend has withdrawn its invitation to people who dress as German soldiers following negative publicity.

The North Yorkshire Moors Railway, which is a charity, said it was a ‘very difficult decision’ but the board was unanimous.

CCTV released in hunt for puppy stolen from museumFor the last 12 years, its quaint station at Levisham has been transformed into ‘Le Visham’, a German-occupied town in northern France as part of a larger re-enactment weekend also involving Allied forces.

But negative coverage of last year’s event led the railway to withdraw their invitation.

I suppose Roman soldier re-enactments will be banned next because the Roman army sacked and destroyed Jerusalem in 70 CE, therefore anti-Semitic.
