Welcome to the website of the Fifth New York Regiment. We are a dedicated group of living historians based in the Hudson Valley of New York State. We strive to learn and recreate the lives and sacrifices of the original Fifth New York from the Revolutionary War. In a small way we experience what they experienced. By doing this we become educators; we not only teach the visiting public, we teach ourselves.
We hope that you enjoy your visit here to our “cyber camp” on the web. This website is very much like the drummer’s call or the dispatch of old. Use it to learn about whom we are and what we do. Should you be intrigued by what you see, we would welcome you to visit us or to join us.
God Save Great Washington!
Your Humble and Obedient Servant,
Tom Johannesson
President/Commander 2017
