Come out to the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center (USAHEC) Armed Forces Weekend, Saturday, May 18 and Sunday, May 19, 2019 from 9:00AM to 5:00PM, for Army Heritage Days! Each year the USAHEC hosts Army Heritage Days, a timeline living history event that features several hundred reenactors from all eras spread out over the one mile long Army Heritage Trail.

As always, this event centers on one specific theme. This year’s focus will Operation Overlord and World War II. Follow #CountdowntoAHD on Facebook and Twitter as specific events are announced. Of course we will be bringing back old favorites, such as the Veterans Meet and Greet, lectures by notable historians, the kid’s passport program, and informational programs by the reenactors on the Army Heritage Trail.
