Battle in the Brickyard - Peru, KS

Unfortunately after 21 years, the WWII battle reenactment held the third weekend of November at Peru, KS (known as the Battle in the Brickyard) has become a politicized, invite-only event.  The event organizers want your modern political views to align with theirs in order for you to participate.  As such, we can no longer support this event.  We pride ourselves in being apolitical, as is required by the WWII History Center's 501c3 nonprofit status.  

We will no longer attend or support this event.  

Because of the irresponsible actions of the event organizers, we recommend no one else support this event either.  Your not attending will send the organizers the message that politics does not belong in reenacting.  

We proudly hosted and advertised the event's webpage and facebook events for 16 years.  Sadly,  that ends now.  The event webpage and all media have been removed from our website.  

Spread the word.  Peru's Battle in the Brickyard reenactment is no more.
