CIVIL WAR REENACTING
Become a part of America’s fastest growing
hobby. The First Texas Infantry Regiment, a
part of the Nineteenth Century Living History
Association Inc., a non-profit corporation,
is looking for recruits. Though the primary
impression is of the First Texas, a Confederate
unit, the association is a non-political
organization and often attends events as
Federal troops. The mission of reenacting
is to educate about the history of that time,
and the lifestyle of the Civil War soldier.
Come join us for monthly adventure, camaraderie,
travel, fresh air and loads of fun. Enlist
