Chester Twp. -
On Saturday September 29, 2001; the 33rd NJ Infantry Regiment and the 11th NJ Volunteers reenacted what camp life was like during the Civil War. The two groups dressed in period uniforms, discussed military life, displayed basic equipment, erected tents, and demonstrated the use and care of a musket.
