Marc Hermann |
|
Takes full legal responsibility for this
thing...Marc is a resident of Brooklyn, NY, just a quick subway
ride away from the neighborhoods where the gangs once reigned
supreme. He is a member of the Hardtack Society/SAC Co. of the
Liberty Rifles, and the 14th Brooklyn NYSM Society of New York.
Known for dragging lucky visitors on minutiae-filled tours of
the Bowery and Five Points (Alaina being one such victim), Marc
is intimately familiar with modern-day murder and mayhem, as
a photographer for the New York Daily News and Brooklyn Daily
Eagle. He volunteers at the New York City Fire Museum, and is
waiting to be appointed by the Fire Department, despite the current
hiring freeze. |

Alaina Zulli |
|
Alaina is currently studying at The Fashion
Institute of Technology, where she is being groomed to be a pawn
in the mass-sportswear industry. She hopes, however, that four
more years of college will allow her to fulfill her dream of
spending her life accessioning dead people's stuff in the dusty,
olive-green basement of the Suffolk County Historical Society.
When not researching or sewing, Alaina spends her free time running
barefoot in Long Island Sound, tending her garden (for the benefit
of the local woodchuck population), and baking fabulous chocolate
chip cookies. |

Brian Steffey |
|
Also member of the 3rd NJ and the Hardtack
Society/SAC Co., Liberty Rifles. Brian is a drummer (who can
actually play military music) and an artist as well . You can
find him in the funnel cake line at any major reenactment . (Editor's
note: Sarcasm implied...) In his free time he enjoys going to
hardcore shows . Tragically, he toils at Starbucks. Go ahead,
laugh it up...I can hear you all now. "He works at Starbucks!
Haha." |

Jason Wickersty |
|
A member of the 3rd NJ and waiting for
his official membership pin and certificate from the Hardtack
Society. His grandmother is of Irish birth, emigrating from Skibbereen,
County Cork, and Jason, tired of being called the quiet nice
one, wants to live up to her assertion that Corkonians are nuts
and hurl some bricks to let his tempestuous Irish heritage out.
He is currently double majoring is U.S. History and Film, and
minoring in French and Music at a quaint New Jersey college that
serves a nice shepherd's pie. He aspires to produce a 'Band of
Brothers' for the Civil War and play sitar in a marching Klezmer
band. |

Katie Vogel |
|
A resident of Hartland, Michigan, Katie
can be seen covered in dust, mud, rain, and general muck at most
any reenactment. She is an active member of her school's dramatics
society (now doesn't that sound snooty?), history club, and about
a million other things. Although not from the New York area,
she assures us that she'll come out east once in a while, soon
to be seen on a street corner near you selling radishes and strawberries,
seasons pending. |

Shaun Grenan |
|
Doesn't want us to know that he's really
a Pennsylvanian, Shaun is 2nd Lieutenant of the 114th Penna.
Regiment, Co. A "Collis' Zouaves," and can also be
seen portraying Col. Elmer Ellsworth of the First Fire Zouaves.
He maintains an online Zouave database at www.zouavedatabase.org
and can be found behind the counter in the bookstore at
the Gettysburg Visitor Center hustling postcards to hapless touristas. |
