You can't censor history just because you don't like it

That fact that Germans are not allowed to attend this is absolutely disgusting. That is blatantly disregarding history and attempting to wipe away the past. The reason people reenact German Soldiers is to keep history alive and present in the minds of our nation. It helps us remember how an entire country came together to do the impossible and help free the planet from fascism. You are disgracing the veterans who actually fought for this freedom.

As a German re-enactor this is appalling to me that a side of any conflict is banned from participation.

This whole incident with the Nazi flag happened AFTER the ROT event was closed and over! It was a setup from the get go! These German Re-enactors do NOT get paid to participate at ROT. It's a shame that the Bay County Historical Society is so short minded and has no backbone to stand up to the few that want to ignore history! What a shame!!

Ban the protesters and tell them reality is the Germans are now our friends and allies
This act of banning the Germans is racist ridiculous and insulting rediculous

The fight should against ignorance, not history.
It's important to teach what ALL happened during ww2.

Reenactments need all elements to show the story in it's truth. Not having the Germans for a WWII show is like not having the English for the Revolution. Please put the Germans back where they belong!

History is something we can not change, It happened, we either learn from it or are doomed to repeat it

They never should have been out! You say for the good of the whole community? Seems to me it was only for one part of this community!

Censoring history is one of the most dangerous things a society can do. Please allow the German reenactors to return to River of Time.

You have to remember history, not sweep portions under the rug
