SUMMARY:165th Anniversary of the U.S. Marines at the Battle of First Manassas.
DESCRIPTION:DATE: 17-19 July 2026\, Friday\, Saturday\, Sunday  \nLOCATION: Manassas National Battlefield\, VA    \nPROGRAM DESCRIPTION: As part of the National Park Service’s annual anniversary program the USMCHC will once again tentatively be presenting exhibits\, walking tours\, and historic weapons demonstrations (depending on the park staff’s overall mission objectives) focusing on the Marine Battalion at the battle and their impact on today’s Marine Corps. With this being the 165th anniversary of the Battle of First Manassas\, there are tentative plans in the works for a major broad-based living-history program with units representing several of those present at the battle. NOTE: This will be a hybrid program using both living-history techniques and modern exhibits. It is manpower sensitive\, needing Marines and members in a living-history role as 1861 Marines and members in contemporary clothing to man the exhibits. More information will follow as it becomes available. \nAn application will be sent out via e-mail for this program. Once received please complete and return the application form ASAP if you plan to participate. For further information contact GySgt Williams\, di************@*ol.com
