CO "E", First Regiment of Florida Volunteer Infantry is a War Between the States Reenactors' organization that was founded on July 24, 1990 in Pensacola Florida. We are dedicated to the remembrance and authentic portrayal of the life and times of the people who lived in that turbulent and tragic era. We attempt to educate ourselves and the public about this this period of history by participating and staging Living History displays; a hands-on experience of what it was truly like back in the days of 1861-1865. It is our hope that through participating in these events that the lessons of the past will not be forgotten. We believe that Living History provides an excellent medium from which to educate the public about the realities of our great American Civil War.
We are an unofficial military company, but we handle ourselves in the field the same way as the troops did in the war. We are constantly striving to perfect our impressions on the field of battle and in our camp life. We like to have fun and experience all the opportunities that this avocation has to offer, but we are also serious about being as professional as we can. We strongly believe that we have a sacred duty and trust to the men of both sides. We wish to do their memory justice and not mock the very ideals to which many gave their last true measure of devotion.
