The Susquehanna Rifles will be at Ft Delaware on June 6-8th portraying the
5th Delaware Infantry. We will be portraying a detachment on guard mounting throughout the weekend. We'll be camped in period barracks inside the fort with period meals, the works. If anyone would like to take part please contact me at MrHardcore1864@aol.com

Thank you

Michael,

I am curious, where are you spending the night? I assumed no one is allowed to spend the night at the fort unless it is Garrison Weekend or other special occasions.

You sleep inside the fort in the confederate officers quarters which is the closet brick building to the sally port second floor.

There are always those super comfy prisoner barracks just outside the fort. Ahh the memories!

This IS one of those special occasions.......it was 'supposed' to be the Don Hubbard FM school .....it may be still held, although Jari's shindig in Pamplin Park has generated a lot of 'press'.

This is indeed the Don Hubbard Field Music school which has been held many times in the past. We will be portraying the guard company for the weekend while working with the school. For more information about the school itself, please check out their web site at
