About me: Welcome the Myspace page for the 155th Reg. P.V. (Pearson's Zouaves), and Company "B" of the 155th PA Reenactors. Be sure to check out the homepage for the 155th at 155thpvi.com.
About Company B:
The 155th PA re-enactors is a campaigner - living history group, proud membes of Vincent's Brigade & The United States Zouave Battalion. We are based in the Mid-Atlantic Region. This group’s primary purpose is to promote the history and knowledge of the 155th, and Zouaves. We do both the Blue and Zouave impression of the 155th. We strive to be free of the politics that plague the re-enacting hobby, we have no membership dues, no probationary period & work to keep things fun. As stated, We are a campaigner unit, meaning we do events that most mainstream units wouldn't. We use minimum tentage, and carry our supplies on our backs. Just as it would have been for the guys we represent. If you are a harden veteran or brand new to the hobby you will be on level ground within this group. Be it in a library doing research or out on the battlefield or even just walking down a street in uniform. We will do our best to create a lasting, eclectic, friendly group of true comrades in arms. So join us today.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone with an interest in joining us, those interested in the 155th, & descendants of the 155th.
I don't if shaun talked to you. But we are starting a "Specialty" Battalion of all Red Legs / Zouaves / Sharpshooters etc. Email me if you want to join us!

Hello :) I wanted to come by and visit, and to let you know that I'll be a guest on Para Women Radio on Sunday, September 23, at 8 p.m. EST. Come by this link and listen that night!
Don't worry if you can't make it that night though because you can download the show anytime after the live run. It'll be a good show and my first public engagement talking about reincarnation and Fanny Chamberlain.
"If you are coming to something which you can't speak, persuade yourself you are going to sing...feel the emotion of it, and that will bear you on its motion...it is not necessary to do this so badly and unskillfully as to draw the attention of your hearers from the things you are saying to the way you are saying them...anything that is worth saying, is worth singing." --Joshua L. Chamberlain
Hello! Sorry for the general comment but it's too hard to give individual comments to almost 400 different people. That doesn't mean I don't think of you though! I wanted to leave you some poppies in the painting above, say hello, and invite you to subscribe to my blog if you're not already. I blog about everything to do with Civil War history, religions, reincarnation, ghosts, art, historic preservation, etc. Have a great week!
"In great deeds something abides. On great fields something stays. Forms change and pass; bodies disappear, but spirits linger, to consecrate ground for the vision-place of souls. And reverent men and women from afar, and generations that know us not and that we know not of, heart-drawn to see where and by whom great things were suffered and done for them, shall come to this deathless field to ponder and dream; And lo! the shadow of a mighty presence shall wrap them in its bosom, and the power of the vision pass into their souls."
Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain
