The Fixed Regiment of Puerto Rico is a living history group composed of volunteers. This organization is dedicated to educating the public of the life and times of soldiers, militia and their families in 18th century Puerto Rico. Our activities include research, demonstrations, and reenactments at living history events. About Us The Puerto Rico 1797 project is an endeavor who’s goal is to educate and commemorate the heroic events surrounding the attack and defense of Puerto Rico. Begun in early 2005, our group has grown quickly. Our members are located throughout Puerto Rico, the United States, and Europe. The Fixed Regiment is just the first unit to be recreated. We wish to grow and represent other historical impressions including the Disciplined Militia, Company of Free Blacks, Urban Militia, Royal Artillery, and civilians. As a result of our emphasis on historic accuracy we have been accepted as members of both the Spanish Napoleonic Association and the Brigade Napoleon (USA). If you love history and would like to participate in historical reenacting please contact us. We are also available for school programs and special events.
