Description
This site is to serve as a discussion group for all individuals with an interest in the history of the US Army in World War II. Our core group is a collection of World War II reenacting and Living History enthusiasts. We have chosen to reenact US Soldiers of the 28th Infantry Division of the Unites States Army. Our intentions for reenacting are numerous:
1. It is our primary intention is to honor and remember those who proudly wore the ‘Keystone’ Patch and served their country as well as all veterans of the era.
2. We wish to promote and encourage the exchange of knowledge about the historical period of WWII among members of this discussion group.
3. Our World War II reenactors will participate in realistic actions simulating World War II conditions. Through this participation in living history and battle re-enactment events of the World War II era, demonstrating drill, tactics, and living conditions of that period.
4. To display and discuss our uniforms, equipment and items of the era at events and through this group.
5. To educate the public about the World War II G.I. and the era that shaped our world
We encourage our members to gain more knowledge about the 28th Infantry Division and the U.S. Army in general while in serve during the Second World War. Our research includes the wealth of books available. Even more important to our research is first person accounts available from veterans, whose individual viewpoint through their experience is priceless, and cannot be measured.
Additionally our goal for this discussion group is to better share a common passion for this period of history; to carry on a fraternal organization among members with common interests, and to encourage the preservation of all relics, memorabilia, historical sites, and the history of the participation of the United States in World War II.
The discussion group only works with your participation.
