Thousands of people travel from all over the United States each year to view the Military Through the Ages event in Williamsburg, VA. This event takes place on March 20th and March 21st and shows the various stages of military evolution starting at the Middle Ages and working toward modern times. 

The event takes place at the Jamestown Settlement where living history is a daily experience for everyone who visits. There will be military vehicles, uniforms, and weaponry at the event to add to the reality of the experience. The military strategies and organizations of the world will be represented at Military Through the Ages.

Jamestown Settlement isn’t the only popular historical hotspot in Williamsburg. Colonial Williamsburg is another popular historical site that offers an 18th Century experience complete with costumed residents and historical architecture. Another popular site is the Yorktown Victory Center, which is located in Yorktown, VA, where you can learn about the events in Yorktown that led to the United States independence from the British.

    I’d love to get to see that! I wrote my 8th grade research paper on the evolution of the sword and dagger throughout history, so this sounds like it would be right up my alley.

    I love military history. It would be great to see exactly how things evolved. I didn’t know it went back as far as the Middle Ages.
