Polish Hussar Supply Plus |
| About Us and What's New |
| For years I've been helping reenactors to develop 17th century Polish Winged Hussar, Pancerni Cossack and Polish Light cavalry kits. Over these years I've developed good relationships with craftspeople here and in Poland and Hungary. Let me help you with my years of knowledge and resources to develop your own unique outfit, arms and armor. |

| Reenacting with the Family |
| I've been reenacting with my two sons for years now, and they love it. In fact, several of their friends have joined the group. Doing this costs us no more than any other hobby out there. The difference is that while they're having a good time they are also learning about their heritage and history. Besides, what kid wouldn't like wearing armor, sleeping in tents, eating camp food and with proper supervision, learning the ancient arts of riding horses, fencing and even Mongol archery. Living history has given the kids a real sense of pride in their ethnicity. They've become teachers at many public events such as schools, museums, libraries, festivals and scouting events, military time lines and battle reenactments in several states. |
