Gå På!


Narva - the siege of the Great Northern War was reenacted by Russian and Swedish reenactors at the weekend. Period formations were enacted as well as an exciting battle. And they had strongbow in the castle bar! In case you're wondering Ga Pa means 'fall on' and was part of the Swedish attack with musket in one hand and sword in the other. I think it's about time some UK reenactors got into the GNW - Poltava in 09 I imagine would be an ideal target. Live Journal/Blog for the period here including video footage.
