81 years ago today, the Anzio landing, part of Operation Shingle during WWII, began on Jan. 22, 1944, as Allied forces aimed to outflank German defenses and capture Rome. Allied troops initially achieved surprise but failed to push inland decisively, allowing German forces under Field Marshal Kesselring to reinforce. A brutal stalemate followed with heavy casualties. In May 1944, the Allies broke through, linking with southern forces and liberating Rome on June 4. Learn about the Italian Campaign in the WWII in Europe Gallery in the American Heritage Museum. ...

1778 64th Light Infantry Co. At AHM

June 5, 2021 @ 10:00 am, ending 5:00 pm

$20


The 64th Light Infantry Company portrays the original Company that was commanded by Captain Thomas Armstrong until 1778. The Company was then taken over by Captain William Snow for the remainder of the war. As we are portraying an actual Regiment, we strive to be as accurate as possible, using period source documents to support any changes made to uniforms and/or kits. Our goal is to educate the public about the role of British soldiers and the 64th Regiment of Foot for the time period of 1775 to 1781 during the American Revolution.

The re-enactor group is based in New England with members in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine. It’s a family-friendly unit and you’ll often find wives, girlfriends, and children depicting Camp Followers, offering cooking demonstrations, showing spectators period toys, and more.
