Sure you can have a WW2 re-enactment for charity. What? Nazi uniforms involved? Oh, hell no!

“A WWII reenactment planned to take place in Yorkshire has been cancelled, due to the highly sensitive nature of the subject. Set to raise funding for the Help for Heroes project, it had been planned to include legitimate vehicles, weaponry, and uniforms, including those used by the Nazis during the war. Barnsley Council stepped in to cancel the event when many apparently complained that some of those involved in the WWII reenactment would have been dressed like Nazis.”

A council spokesman said the war can be rescheduled as long as no Nazis are involved.
