Our purpose is four fold: (1) to portray and honor the Federal and Confederate soldiers, and civilians associated with the Civil War, as accurately as we can; (2) to increase the public's awareness of the Civil War and its effects on the nation; (3) to help preserve sites and artifacts of the war; and (4) to have a lot of fun doing the first three. We participate in battle and encampment re-enactments, balls, living history activities, and parades. We welcome anyone with a passion for history.

The Fort Douglas Living History Detachment is absolutely non-political. We are not affiliated with any political party or group, or any political ideology. We are dedicated to preserving history by making it live in the present.
