Museums & Institutions - El Dorado, Kansas, United States
World War II Reenacting and Living History can be a valuable educational tool for both those who participate and those who witness the activity. It is a way to transport the participant and viewer alike back into the past to see first-person at least some measure of what life was like as a soldier, sailor, airmen or civilian during a particular time period.The World War II History Center, based out of El Dorado, KS, has its own reenacting units for the purpose of staging mock battles, providing demonstrations, and participating in parades and displays. These units are known as the WWII Reenacting Corps.The Mission of the Reenacting Corps is to fulfill the WWII History Center's Vision: "To remember a generation, to honor their sacrifices, and to educate future generations."We can also help guide those interested in establishing a living history impression for those that would like to teach others about a particular role during World War II, whether it is a military or civilian persona.The Reenacting Corps currently has two units - the American 82nd Airborne and the German 352.Infanterie-Division. These units, as well as our Living Historians, make up the Reenacting Corps.
