Welcome to 504pir.org, home of A Company 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division of the World War II Historical Reenactment Society.

Our sole purpose is to educate the public by providing a "living history experience" of World War II, dedicating our efforts to keeping alive & strong the sacrifices WWII veterans made in making not only the United States of America a safer place, but the entire world.

"It is rather for us the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."

-- President Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address
