O.K. I know this is not where this should be posted,but, I figured this would be the best way to reach the most of you with the most knowledge. One of my bucket list items is a Tiger round up. Get a bunch of Zouaves together for a grand and glorious fight. A local reenactment(Reynoldsburg,Ohio)has just sent out its invitations. If any of you know of any Zouave units who are available June22,23,24 could you PM me the contact info.The most Zouave units I have ever seen in one place is three, I'd like to change that. Last year we had nine field pieces and 250 infantry total, so its not a small reenactment. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, TIG. |

79th PA: No link yet, contact is RJMergel@aol.com. I believe he is the commander of The Society of Civil Surgeons who are one of the hosts of the event. |

Look for the 140th NY. They are from Rochester ny and are zouves. They are very active and have a decent sized unit (25-35) members. They have a website I think |

Alas, too late for the small but passionate band of Wheat's Tigers we raised in southern Australia in the 1990s -- I think at our height we numbered 6! What we lacked on the muster roll, we made up for in our capacity for revelry. |

I thought that Misters Mingus and Washburn might be of some help, but evidently not. For the few of you who responded, thanks for the help. TIG |

"Last year we had nine field pieces and 250 infantry total, so its not a small reenactment." Maybe for Ohio, but that's a pretty small reenactment for the Mid-Atlantic. Admittedly, having reenactments on the actual battlefields is helpful… Cedar Creek 2011:

firstva: Great pictures. We are spoiled here in the Mid-Atlantic. Cedar Creek is always one of my favorites (except the year it rained so much the parking lot filled up!) |

Funny, those aren't mine, but they were taken from almost exactly the same position that I was at that day; probably within 50 feet of me at most. He probably had a better camera than I did anyhow! |
