Looking forward to a great weekend at Fort Mifflin on the Delaware. November 8th and 9th. Come by and visit with the PA Navy at the West Sallyport!
May 17 and 18th was the Mid-Atlantic Regional event, Sandy Hollow. Everyone in the PANavy had a great time! The weather was perfect, the logistics were well done, and it was a well run tactical. The sheer number of public spectators was something I have not seen in some time. Which is what this is […]
The Sandy Hollow event is coming up fast. Only a week away! Hundreds of reenactments are held every year. Very few, if any, occur on the actual site of the battle. Except this one.

This weekend was the 235th anniversary of the Siege of Fort Mifflin. Really excellent turnout from the reenacting community. Glad to see that. The PSN brigaded with the Continental Marines as a Naval Brigade. It was really refreshing to work with another naval unit and a great change of pace to be part of the […]
So why would PSN personnel be at the Battle of Princeton? Some fast facts: Marines from the galley Hancock were incorporated into the Second Battalion of the Pennsylvania Militia under Cadawalader. Approximately 60 marines from the floating batteries Arnold and Putnam were fielded under the command of Captain William Brown. Seamen familiar with the handling […]
