45th Infantry Division - WWII Reenactors and Venturing Crew

http://www.45thdivision.org/

"First and foremost, we are a living history organization, not a militia unit. This unit was established in 1997 for the main purpose of honoring the veterans of World War II who were members of the 45th Infantry Division. Throughout the year we attend various living history events where we have the opportunity to teach the public about the Thunderbirds, and to meet some of the men who served in this fine unit. We also attend tactical battle reenactments, in which the event hosts try to recreate scenarios from the war. Although we will never truly know what the men who served during those times went through, we strive to learn as much as we can about what they experienced."
