Massive gathering in Germania in 2009

[Andreas Gobinius]

I was there too. 33 persons from Poland participated in the event as Legio XIIII GMV and as project called Iron Roots. It was a really great experience for us to familiarize with such presentation of the battle. It was really great work for education in my opinion and especially really nice time to meet other reanactors from Germanic and Roman groups. Special thanks to our neighbours at the camp - Hermunduri and the Chief of the Roman camp - Uwe. We had the worst place according to the rain because we tented in the stream valley, near the "iron bridge", however a swamp created by the Friday`s storm was not a border hard to pass by visitors as we recognized
But first of all I want to thank Ghandi for hospitality, patience and a really great work done with other members of Comitatus. In spite of many disadvantages connected with the organization phase of the event, we are really satisfied that we finally had an opportunity to be there this special time with all these unusual people. Hopefully Polish participation was worth Robert`s suggestions and work. This time I was a Germanic tribe member then thanks to all Romans "killed" in the battle :wink: . I noticed that Italian legionaires were a really good actors during the performance
