“The Replacements” are a group of living history enthusiasts from Holland, brought together by a common interest in Military life during World War 2

Who are we, what do we do and why?

All of us are ordinary men and women with ordinary jobs and other occupation, but during events we turn into a real “Band of Brothers”. Our group owns no vehicles; some members do but the most rely on their own boots.

Our goal is to try recreate the conditions (at the front line) during WW2 at re-enactment events, by setting up displays with (mostly original) equipment and uniforms. We feel it’s our duty to remember the generation that gave their all for the liberation of Europe.
