United States. Our means of doing this is through living history,
the “museum that talks back.” NMLHA members appear in a variety of settings:
museums, schools, national parks, local historical societies, and reenactments
of Revolutionary and Civil War battles nationwide. Accurately uniformed and
equipped, our members provide a unique perspective on the largely unsung
contributions of the Continental, British, Confederate, and
Union
navies in a way that makes history come alive!
If you enjoyed discussing history with NMLHA members at
a recent event, please consider a donation to the organization. Ours is an
all-volunteer association and living history is an expensive undertaking: to
clothe and equip a single individual can cost a thousand dollars (or more).
Supporting the member men and women who give their time, money, and knowledge is
why NMLHA was founded. But we need your help to keep up our work. Your
contribution to the Navy & Marine Living History Association is entirely tax
deductible and every dollar will go to a single end: keeping our people in the
field demonstrating and teaching a history that must not be forgotten.
Donations can be made via PayPal using the button below
or can be sent to the NMLHA Treasurer at
4160 Lauerl Hill Avenue, Norwich, CT and be made out to “NMLHA.” If you wish to donate
to the specific unit, please jot it in the “memo” section of your
check so that we can direct it to them. Unspecified donations support the Navy
& Marine LHA in its programs that apply to all of our member groups. Thank you!
Sincerely,
Chris Grimes
President, NMLHA
