Historic Soldiers Weekend
Take a Walk Through History!
September 24th & 25th, 2011 at our new
location, Historic Fort
Mott, Pennsville, NJ
Come for the event and help support Historic Fort Mott!
Historic Soldiers Weekend
is a historical encampment, featuring re-enactors, and their equipment, from
every American conflict, spanning from the French and Indian War to the
Vietnam War. In some instances, both sides of the conflicts will be present,
such as the revolutionary war loyalists and "redcoats", civil war
confederate units, and WWII German infantry units. The re-enactment units
will be camping out for the weekend at Historic Fort Mott, living as
their ancestors did.
Journey back in time to
give yourself and your children, students and guests a chance to see, hear
and touch real history through the life of a typical soldier during the
French and Indian War, Civil, World Wars, and beyond.
