The picture in the background is my old unit from the NCWA (National Civil War Association). The unit is the 1st United States Berdan Sharpshooters Co. C. If you have any question I would love a post from you to hear your question.
God Bless
This will be about me and my journey in the world of Civil War reenacting. I would welcome any other persons take on Civil War reenacting. I would especially like to hear from other woman reenactors.
My experiences as a Woman/Man Civil War Reenactor
- Kristine Hughes(Kris)
- Raleigh, NC, United States
- My Civil War reenacting started I believe in 1995 or 1996 when I joined the National Civil War Association (NCWA), located in California. I also became a member of the American Civil War Association (ACWA), also located in California. I knew I wanted to be a soldier, just did not know whether to be on the Union or Confederate. So I flipped a coin and choose the 5th Texas Brigade. I believe I stayed with them for a few years and then "saw the light" and joined the 1st United States Sharpshooters Company C. I have traveled up and down the West Coast as well as here on the East Coast. This blog will be about my time as a reenactor and my goals for seeing the sites out here in North Carolina and beyond.
