WELCOME!

Welcome to the Fort Wayne Battalion Drill Site. This website has been designed to be a source of information about training events that are held for Civil War Living Historians at Historic Fort Wayne in Detroit, MI. As you look around, you will also find follow-up information about events we've held in the past. Fort Wayne was used by the United States Army as a mustering point for men entering the Union's service. While they were there, they also received elementary training into the craft of a solider. We continue this tradition today by using the Fort to improve our skills as we strive to interpret and portray these brave men.

Combined Arms Drill

We have a date posted for the 2010 Combined Arms Drill. To help out our friendly adversary, Nick Medich, we are switching weekends with the Medich Confederate Battalion Drill.

Also new for 2010, I'd like to welcome a new co-sponsor for the event. The 5th Michigan is thrilled to receive the help of the Sally Port Mess officialy. We're looking forward to the 2010 event and hope to see you there!

Will Eichler - Co-organizer
