The 2nd Virginia Regiment 1812-1815 is a Non-Profit,
501(c)(3), Living
History/Reenactment unit portraying Virginia Militia forces during the War of 1812. The Unit was formed in 1992 as the Fort
Norfolk 1812 Garrison after the
opening of Fort Norfolk to the public in May of that year. Our goal as a
unit is to help broaden the public's, and our own, knowledege and
understanding of the causes and impact of the War of 1812 with a focus
on the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. The unit has attended Living
History programs in the Hampton Roads area and Baltimore, Maryland. We
have also been the host unit for the Battle of Craney Island
event at Fort Norfolk in Norfolk, Virginia.
