We are a German WWII Living History organization located in the Pacific Northwest with members spread across Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and Northern California.  

Kp. Großdeutschland is a non-political unit whose sole purpose is to preserve World War Two history through uniform, equipment & vehicle restorations, static displays, and historical reenactments. Understanding where they came from, how they were raised, what they were taught, how they were trained, and how they fought, gives us insight into what the Enemy’s side was like while giving us the ability to take lessons from the past to apply to the present.

We usually meet once a month to accomplish this purpose. Our membership consists of military historians, collectors, students, businessmen, veterans, vehicle enthusiasts, and many others who share an interest in World War Two. Preserving and accurately recreating history is a common goal.

 

We are always looking for new recruits! Uniforms and gear are available on a loaner basis. Please take the time to visit our entire website. If you have any questions please feel free to fill out the contact form anytime!

4 KP. SS-VT GERMANIA

With a focus on authenticity and kameraderie, we endeavor to create a atmosphere wherein we can relive some of the hardships that the soldiers of World War II felt, while still keeping in mind that as a hobby it has to be kept fun.



 

We have members from all walks of life, from all areas, as far north as British Columbia, Canada, as far south as California, and as far east as Utah, with guests coming from as far away as Germany, and the east coast of Canada and the United States. As a group, we come together to further our love and interest in history through hands on experience.



 

We keep a strict code of authenticity and require all members to abide and keep within such. This means not only in terms of the uniforms and weapons used, but also in regard to grooming and mannerisms.



 

As a hobby, we understand that it should be kept fun, though that does not mean that it will be as such all the time. When in the field, you may be expected to sleep in a foxhole with minimal comforts. Such experiences will give you a very small glimpse into what the soldiers of the day had to endure, and a greater appreciation for why they call those who participated the 'Greatest Generation'.

As a non-political living history organization, we do not support or condone any neo-nazi, extremist, or anti-American organizations or activities.

The 164th Light Afrika Division is a sub-unit of 5 Kp. Großdeutschland, which serves as an alternate impression for unit members across AG44 for North Africa events.

INFANTRY REGIMENT 39

The purpose of this unit is to provide a look at the "common“ infantryman of the Heer, devoid of any special status or title; in two main periods of the war, namely the soviet offensives of mid 1942 and the defense of Germany in late 1944 into 1945. The main goals of the unit are to accurately and safely portray these impressions, and build a group that can hold to high authenticity standards in both culture and materials.

 

During the war, the 39. Infanterie Regiment saw action as part of the 26. Infanterie Division in Belgium and France, and then later as part of Army Group Middle in Operation Barbarossa, including the lead-up to and main action of the Battle of Kursk from February 1943 to August of that same year. It was destroyed along with its division in early September of 1944 near Smolensk. A week later, its survivors were reconstituted and reinforced as the 39. Füsilier Regiment, 26. Volksgrenadier Division. The division was sent then to the west where it fought in the Ardennes, namely encircling Bastogne. After the collapse of the Ardennes offensive it retreated and fought along the westwall before it’s staff surrendered in April of 1945 and it’s few stragglers were dispersed to other units."
