If the field is too wet\, we’ll shift as much as possible indoors. \nThe Revolution endured far worse weather — so can we. \n\nStep into a defining moment at the crossroads of history during the Revolutionary War Camp of Induction and Instruction\, where an empire’s grip began to loosen\, and a nation was born. \nExperience what life was like 250 years ago\, at a critical stage of the American Revolution when ordinary men and women faced extraordinary choices—remain loyal to King and Country\, or risk everything for the radical ideals of freedom and liberty. Explore the realities of military life in a world on the brink of change\, from the harsh discipline and professionalism of the British Army to the determined beginnings of a new American fighting force. \nThrough living history and immersive interpretation\, witness the birth of an American army and the clash of ideologies that would shape the future of the United States. \nAll of this unfolds at the Museum of the American G.I.\, as we commemorate 250 years of American independence—where history doesn’t just live\, it comes to life. \nThis is an outdoor event and is included with museum admission. \n  \nOrder of Exercises & Proceedings \n10:10 AM – Transportation to the demonstration field begins – starting point\, museum building \n10:30 AM – Ceremony of InductionEncampments Open & Living History Commences \n11:30 AM – Drill & the Exercise of Muskets \n12:00 PM – Dinner is Taken (Demonstrations) \n12:30 PM – Instruction in the Use of the Bayonet \n1:30 PM – Reading of the Declaration & Enlistment of Recruits \n2:00 PM – Drill & Bayonet Exercise \n3:00 PM – Life in Camp & Historical Demonstrations \n4:00 PM – Conclusion of the Day (Saturday) \nSunday: All Exercises conclude at 3:00 PM URL:https://americangimuseum.org/events/camp-of-induction-and-instruction/ LOCATION:Museum of the American GI\, 19124 Highway 6 South\, College Station\, Texas\, 77845 CATEGORIES:Museum Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://americangimuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Revolutionary-War-Camp-of-Induction-and-Instruction.png ORGANIZER;CN="Museum of the American GI":MAILTO:info@americangimuseum.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260221T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260222T170000 DTSTAMP:20260514T141810 CREATED:20260104T214342Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260104T214342Z UID:10000351-1771668000-1771779600@americangimuseum.org SUMMARY:Hands on History - World War I DESCRIPTION:Join us February 21 & 22 for Hands-on History: World War I\, an interactive weekend that brings the Great War out of the textbooks and into your hands.

Join us on February 28 for an engaging talk with Sara Boswell as she explores how everyday Americans adapted to wartime shortages and rationing through creative cooking and the nationwide Victory Garden movement. \nThis program will examine how ration books worked\, which foods were hardest to come by\, and how families learned to “make do” while still feeding their households. Learn how Victory Gardens transformed lawns into lifelines\, supplying fresh produce and boosting morale on the home front. Along the way\, we’ll share period recipes\, surprising substitutions\, and the powerful connection between food\, patriotism\, and perseverance. \nWhether you’re interested in WWII history\, home-front stories\, or the ingenuity of ordinary citizens during extraordinary times\, this talk offers a fascinating look at how food helped fuel the war effort—and sustain a nation.
