Reclaiming Our Heritage

Reclaiming Our Heritage

Reclaiming Our Heritage is a free living history celebration held at the National Soldiers Home Historic District on the campus of the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The multi-era encampment takes place annually on the weekend after Memorial Day. On May 30-31, 2009, the weekend will pay tribute to military medical personnel of all eras, with a special focus on modern military servicemen and women and on the mission of the VA Medical Center.

Reclaiming Our Heritage is hosted by the staff of the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center. The VA Medical Center was one of the three original branches of the National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers established after the Civil War. The campus also contains the VA Benefits Administration and a National Cemetery.
