Revolutionary War Reenactors


I enjoy living history events. Partly it's the costumes, but mostly it's the fun of traveling back in time sort-of, while still feeling safely in the present. I'm pretty sure I would not really enjoy living through the American Revolution or the Civil War. People really suffered here in the eastern part of the country.

These fellows are teaching us some things about the Continental Soldiers and their weapons. The location was the Shenandoah Germanic Heritage Museum property in Mt. Olive.
