Who We Are

The Third Regiment Incorporated is a historical education organization dedicated to the preservation of the memories of the soldiers who served in the armies of the American Civil War. Member organizations and individuals thereof
participate in a wide variety of public and private educational events including, but not limited to, encampments, parades, battle recreations, public speaking
appearances, and related historical-themed events.

The Third Regiment stood up in November 2024 and was designated by the Federal Government as a 501(c)(3) public charity on 4 February 2025.

PHILOSOPHY: The Third Regiment is a flat and lean organization that focuses on maximizing the positive experiences of member Companies. The Executive
Board exists only to facilitate the activities desired by Member units. Overhead activities will be kept to a minimum – e.g.: no scholarships, dances, dinners, etc.
that have inflated the costs of similar organizations. The watchwords of Executive Board are “Transparency” and “Servant Leadership.”

The Executive Board and the Military Command structure will be kept separate save for the overlap of the position of the Military Commander.

Lastly, Member organizations of the Third Regiment are committed to working together at events in an inclusive fashion.

JOINING THE THIRD REGIMENT: The Third Regiment is open to new member units who share the goals and philosophy of the Regiment.
