We generally attend three battle reenactments in the spring and three in the fall. Most years we attend a national event, which is kind of like the Super Bowl of reenacting. Numbers attending those events can easily exceed 10,000 soldiers like myself, complete with cavalry and artillery.

We do both impressions. We attend many reenactments as Federal (soldiers). It's just part of the hobby and required by our unit. Attending an event as a Yankee adds to the experience by allowing you to appreciate the differences, but know that on a common soldiers level there were little differences.
