Hudson restaurant apologizes for WWII reenactors who dined in German SS uniforms [Video]

A Hudson restaurant took to social media Sunday to apologize after WWII reenactors dined inside while wearing German SS uniforms this past weekend.

According to the Kith and Kin, eight living historians from the America Heritage Museum dined inside the restaurant Saturday night, including a “couple” who were dressed as Schutzstaffel soldiers.

The restaurant said it would “never do anything to offend or hurt anyone” and said the diners shouldn’t have been allowed to step foot in the restaurant while in costume.

“Even though we knew they were living historians, at a time when acts of anti-Semitic violence continue to rise, we should have realized other diners might not be aware of the local WWII re-enactment,” the restaurant wrote on Facebook. “As a small, family-owned business, we strive every day to do our best and are continuing to learn and grow. Last night we fell short, and we deeply apologize.”
