The Tenth Annual Historic Soldiers Weekend will be held on September 27th and 28th, 2014 at Fort Mott. This extensive military living history display and show will be held at Fort Mott, a historic Coastal Artillery Fort, which has a Finns Point Military Graveyard just beyond its walls. This event will again feature hundreds of military re-enactors, dozens of collectible historic vehicles, plus guest speakers such as veterans from WWII, Korea and Vietnam as well as several local authors.
Over the last year, Fort Mott exceeded their previous records for attendance from the South Jersey and Philadelphia area at our WWII themed events. With this event we hope to expand upon that success. This event has been featured on Comcast as well as the WFN network. Also of interest, Historic Soldiers Weekend (HSW) was honored with a New Jersey State Senate Resolution for be a valuable event in preserving our Military History when hosted in Burlington City.
The purpose of this event is to honor our nation’s history and to honor our veterans. The event website; www.soldiersweekend.com, has a variety of event pictures, regional newspaper clippings, a current guest speaker / veteran’s attendance list and other important information regarding the event. Please note that this event is free to the public.
