Reenactors? No, although for fun they did dress me up in an US paratroop gear so I can have fun with my facebook profile pic :-) Have been in touch with militaria/history buffs here since I got the chance to teach history of Philippine photography; was hoping to catch them either in American/Japanese WW2 or Philippine/Spanish events (have I shared these with PDML? > http://www.flickr.com/photos/bongmanayon/sets/72157626897139973/); my goal was for my students to shoot them with the matching period technology (i.e., glass plates/albumen for late 1800s Philippine Revolution vs. the Spanish...) apart from the immersion into history. But its 'off-season' for those events and the reenactors takes advantage of that by doing something different, so the European theater thing which kinda odd (okay...weird).
