The 118th National SCV Reunion was held in Vicksburg, Mississippi on July 18 - 20, 2013. There were several historical presentations given about Vicksburg. "Civilians and Soldiers inside the Siege Lines" at Vicksburg, and "The Art of Commemoration" being used on the monuments at Vicksburg National Military Park are just to name a few.. There are guided bus tours explaining the course of events within the battlefield at Vicksburg National Park which many enjoyed during the reunion. Many events were held during the week of which came to an end on Saturday evening with the Commander's Reception, Grand Banquet, and Debutante Presentation. Several members of the Stonewall Jackson Camp attended the 118th National SCV Reunion and a good time was had by all.
Many members are already looking forward to the 119th National SCV Reunion to be held during July 2014 in Charleston, South Carolina. Long live the South!
