A local attraction hosted a reenactment a couple weeks ago of the battle for Caen and featured the repro Tiger that was used in Saving Private Ryan. It makes appearances around here quite a bit; apparently the guy is a midwesterner. I think the only operational *rear* Tiger is at a (Bovingdon I think?) tank museum in England.

I have a pretty complete set of WWII field gear and an M1 Garand and a Carbine. I have been sorely tempted to join the local reenactors group. I just need a pair of brown combat boots and a khaki Garand ammo belt, and I'll be about set!
