I am not a re-enactor (although I would like to get involved if I had the time), and have never been to a Roman-period re-enacting event. However, from what I've seen on RAT, it seems to me that there are very few, if any, re-enactors doing officer impressions (tribunes, legates, generals and such). Are these 'higher' officers underrepresented by the re-enacting community, or is it just that I haven't seen many impressions posted on RAT, but they do exist? If they are underrepresented, why is this so? Lack of evidence for correct kit? Extra costs involved in officer's kit?
