1st Maryland/Southern Campaign--The 1st Maryland/Southern Campaign is part of a non-profit, educational, historical organization dedicated to preserving and honoring the memory of the soldiers of the Revolutionary War era. (This is the revolutionary war half of the group. The other half is the 39th North Carolina of the War Between The States era. To see specific information about that part of the group click here). Our goal is to portray the Maryland Continental soldier as accurately as possible, through battle reenactments, living history programs, parades, local festivals, school lectures and memorial services. Many of our rules/regulations may seem petty and insignificant but since our goal is to be as accurately as possible, we have to be that way. The more authentic we are, the better we can increase the public's awareness and understanding as to how and why they fought. To do any less would be doing our ancestors and ourselves a disservice. |

We take historical reenacting very seriously and pride ourselves on the high quality of our interpretations of eighteenth century life.

In this manner, we can vividly explain the past, the everyday men and women who demanded freedom from colonial rule, and the social customs that defined their daily lives. |

To accomplish this hundreds of hours of research and years of experience have been put forth by all members to determine what uniform(s) were worn by the men, what types of clothing the civilians would be wearing, what military equipment the soldiers would have been issued, the proper drills, and procedures used by the army at the time and the correct types of food that the soldiers were fed. |
