For anybody in the Mid-Atlantic U.S. who is interested in Dutch military history, but can't make it out to the Netherlands to participate in their events, 5e Regiment Infanterie ("5RI") may be the unit for you! Our focus is on the history of the Dutch military in the years leading up to and including the invasion of Holland in May 1940.
We are open to welcoming either experienced reenactors or newbies. However, the one thing that our members and recruits all share is a fascination with history, and a belief that no detail in appearance, kit, drill, or deportment is too small to attempt to recreate.
