Official Opening
of Gettysburg NPS Visitor Center

Gettysburg, PA

September 26 - 28, 2008

Mother Nature was brutal to us all weekend yet the 67th NY stuck it out to the bitter end. In fact the National Park Service was most grateful to the Mifflin Guard for we were the only Living History group that did not cancel on account of the weather. We formed Second Company with the 61st NY and performed firing demos by the Minnesota Monument however we also marched up to the Visitor Center several times to perform for the huge crowds that flocked in for the weekend. As long, rough, and soggy this event was it was probably the shining momemt of fortitude in our entire regimental history.
