In 1999, the Detached Hospital was privileged to be one of the founding units of the Brigade of the American Revolution 's Southern Department. The Detached Hospital continues it's mission of research and interpretation to the public by working with various local, state, and national historic sites. We also assist with movie and television historical productions. We also take our medical display to schools, meetings of local historical societies or any where else that there is a interest in the history of the American Revolution, or the history of early medicine. We are a family oriented group, and we actively recruit new members.
Men portray medical personnel, women as distaff or as women of the hospital.
All members are required to pay membership dues to defray the cost of operating the Hospital and if they wish to participate in B.A.R. functions are required to be members of that organization.
