| The First Division strive to promote the WWII L.H.A and the hobby of living history / battle re-enactment. To do so the group has maintained high standards of presentation, discipline and safety at both public and private events. The First Division has focused its display upon the men of Company E, 2nd Battalion, 16th Infantry Regiment, U.S. 1st Infantry Division. In doing so we can ensure that as far as possible the clothing, arms and equipment used gives an accurate representation of U.S. Infantry soldiers in North West Europe, with particular attention paid to the assault troops of D-Day 1944. Our living history activities have focused on the period of 1942 to the end of the war, including the invasions of Sicily and France and the fighting across Europe into Germany. Our encampments depict the pre embarkation camps, Assault training camps, rear line rest areas or the front line in North West Europe. |
