Living History
In this type of event, participants set up a display attempting to show the public a small part of what Soldiers, Marines, Sailors or Airmen experienced during the war. Such displays normally focus on the "Material culture" of the military during the war, with tents, vehicles, weapons, and other everyday items on display in as close to their original context as possible. Participants in uniform are generally available to answer questions or perform period activities for public observation.
