Dear followers,

The surviving members of the 16th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry Company (the unit this page is dedicated to) have decided to merge this page with our new unit’s page. The members of the 16th PVI have disbanded a while ago, and have joined the ranks of the Gettysburg Independent Blues (or as most reenactors know them as the Gettysburg Blues). You will see many familiar faces, and the new page is more active. In addition to reenactments and living history, the Blues also serves as a color guard. The Blues are also looking for new members to join the ranks. If you are interested, please reach out to [email protected]. Thank you for being dedicated members to this page, and we hope you enjoy our new content.
