Richmond local news announced this afternoon (Friday) that the reenactor involved with the accidental shooting of a fellow reenactor in Isle Of Wight County, Virginia back in September will be charged with 'reckless use of a firearm". His name will not be released until formal charges are filed. My parent reenacting group, First Division, ANV (www.bonnieblue.net) has had an increase in liability insurance premiums that have almost doubled our dues. The main reason given for the increase was the far greater number of members and events now covered by the policy than when it was first issued. No mention, other than idle gossip, was ever made of this September incident at our convention in November.
