Membership Requirements of the

7th South Carolina Volunteer

Infantry Regiment Co. K

Military Life: While in camp, along with your personal  effects, we strongly encourage members to portray the typical  soldier or auxiliary member as best you can and to develop  "first person personas."

Weapons: The standard issue for the soldier of the 7th  S.C.V.I. Regiment Co. K is the three band Enfield rifled musket.  A three band Springfield is also acceptable.

Uniforms: The 7th S.C.V.I. Co. K adheres to strict uniform  regulations. Because of the company's desire to accurately  portray a soldier of the 7th, there is a uniform code established.

-Jean wool (9 button) frock coat with blue piping (to order your  frock coat click on the following link:milk creek mercantile).

-Black slouch hat or blue kepi

-Brogans or square tip boots

-Regulations union blue britches, or jean wool trousers

Camp Life:

There are two standard types of tentage allowed in the company  street of the 7th. The larger being the "A" tent which is primarily  used during winter quarter events and for company officers.  Also, the "dog" tent used for campaign purposes is for ease of  transporting. For the campaign style reenactor, you can simply  sleep under the stars as a number of us do.

Membership:

Each individual of the 7th S.C.V.I. must attend three events in  one calendar year to gain full-membership status.
