I live in Central NY and I've not seen a WWII US Unit here. Currently I have a full US infantry impression (except for repro ww2 boots) and a thompson(cyma).

There isn't a lot in NY at the moment. There is the 3rd FJ for Germans over near Albany but there isn't any US units that I know of.

I know that right in Schoharie there is a 2nd Ranger unit started. I think it has like 2 guys. They are going to the July event if you would like to meet up with them. Also, I know there are two infantry WW2 guys in Rochester NY or rather, closer to Rush NY.

But yeah! We have a nice sized 3rd FJ unit in upstate NY.

Do the US guys have a web site? I can't make it to the July event because I'am going camping during it.

I am thinking about doing a Fallschirmjager Impression after I get a job (Not yet working age) and save some money because it looked like the 3rd FJ was the only unit in NY. ;D

You look like you have a pretty nice kit put together, If I were you, I would stay the course and find others interested in joining your unit. Starting all over with a new impression (especially Fallschirmjager) may not be the best course of action. Then again, its totally up to you.

Is it Dog Company, 504th PIR, 82nd ABN? I'm trying to stick to regular infantry, but I could start a US Aiborne impression. All I would need are M42's and M1936 suspenders.

Its up to you but I think you should try getting together with the guys Gefreiter Raimund suggested. Then you will not have to buy a new kit.

If I start my own US unit it will probably be the 2nd Armored Div. 66th Reg. A Company...

Actually I might have a chance to go to the Mignano Gap Event. I'll register if I can. I would know right now if I could go if I was old enough to drive.

How far from Amsterdam NY, Schoharie NY? And… How old are you? NVM about the age. It is in your profile. If you can go, great!
