A bit of history…

OstBattalion’43 is formed in early 2000 by a group of military modelers and collectors in that wanted to learn first hand and in closer details, the uniforms, field gear, insignia etc of the German soldat.

Membership is relatively hard to find in Singapore, but the group will be putting in the best efforts to spread the word about WW2 collecting and reenacting.


The TruppenFuhrer…

The founder, Alvin Lee already has great interest in WW2 German AFV since young (at about 9 years old) and started molding this interest through plastic modeling. However, when he first bought his first full size “original” German helmet in 1995 ( A Spanish one, he was young…he did not know) he thought that it would be a good hobby if he started collecting more items and he did, but not forgetting his 1 / 35 kits too!

Purpose…

The group strives to historically portray the Asiatic (Ost-Truppen) soldiers, who served with the German Wehrmacht during World War Two by wearing the correct uniforms and field gear and also to project the correct manners to the general public

We want to be the first and premier group in Singapore to show what were the living conditions that the average soldier experienced in the field, how the soldier wore his issued field gear but most important of all, to bring all WW2 enthusiasts and any person interested in living history together to build a stronger bond.

We want to let all know that there were asiatics that took part in various campaigns during World War Two. We want to expand this knowledge, as this is still a very important area that has yet to be covered in detail.

Film work…

Although the group is still small at this stage, we are able to cater to skits, films that you might be making about the German WW2 soldiers. We would be most willing to provide authentic uniforms, gear and to help out as advisors in your version of “ Saving Private Ryan” or “ Band of Brothers ”!

We are also able to provide public education not just about the German army but also about World War Two in general.

What we are not…

The Unit Disclamer says it all...
Alvin's Wehrmacht Homapage, OstBattalion43 is a non political historical reenactment group.  We are not related to any Racist, Neo-Nazi, paramilitary, supremacist etc organisations. We study the German army purely for reenacting and historical purposes only. If you want to join and have any Neo-Nazi thoughts.  Sorry, this is  NOT the place for you. Go look elsewhere!
