After my first reenactment where I was Pak gun commander, we were sitting in the cafe, drinking and talking, when one of the American reenactor, a NCO, came up to a member of my unit, an Obergefreiter-Unteroffizeranwarter, asking who was in charge of the Pak gun. I overheard it, and stood up and walked over, saying "Hey, that's me, can I help you with something, is there something wrong?"
He then stuck out his hand and said "I just wanted to congratulate you on your performance"
"Wha...huh...?" <took his hand in mine and shook>
"You guys were fucking annoying for us, your camo was amazing, and I'm sorry if some guys didn't take hits from you, it was because they didn't even see you. I heard it was your first time in a command role, and I just wanted to congratulate you."
"Wow...thank you sir!"
That was a VERY good feeling.
