"NO MISSION TOO DIFFICULT,
NO SACRIFICE TOO GREAT,
DUTY FIRST, SIR, DUTY FIRST!"

Welcome to the finest fighting division in the world. The Big Red One has served proudly since its founding in 1917. Since then, the Division has served with distinction and honor in war and peace. In World War I, World War II, Vietnam, Desert Storm, the Cold War, and the present, the Big Red One has soldiered hard in some of the toughest battles in U.S. history. At Cantingy, Kasserine Pass, Gela, Omaha Beach, Butgenbach, Operation Junction City, Objective Norfolk, and hundreds of other locations, the First Infantry Division fought it way into history's pages.

In the Pacific Northwest, the Big Red One continues to serve with pride as a unit of the Pacific Northwest Historical Group. Our group is dedicated to remembering and honoring the memory of the World War II combat soldier. We do this in two ways; through living history and battle reenactments. Our goal is to combine the two facets into a seamless history experience of the World War II era.

The PNWHG is a non-political organization. Our group does not support, condone, or allow any activity which could bring discredit on its members or the soldiers we portray. NO EXTREMIST ACTIVITY OF ANY KIND WILL BE ALLOWED NOR TOLERATED.
