Our uniforms and equipment are the products of years of research, and we take great pride in our accuracy. Several British military museums were impressed enough by our work that they have asked for uniforms and equipment for display purposes. Only accurate materials are used wool, linen, brass, pewter, leather, steel, wood, etc., and we use period tailoring and assembly. The unit is responsible for the production of equipment items unique to the Guards. There are numerous commercial sources for a great deal of the equipment, but we highly recommend that new recruits consult with current members before they purchase any items.
Current members are willing to assist the new recruit with the gathering of the necessary items.
Unfortunately, it is not a cheap hobby. Purchasing used or second-hand uniforms and equipment can significantly reduce costs. The good news is that much of the initial investment can last a lifetime and is not charge all at one time. Travel expenses are deferred to a great deal by car-pooling to events and staying in encampments. The N.W.T.A. is made up of units representing all the nations that took part in the American War for Independence.
