Matthew Krough, dressed in a 1812 period specific uniform, narrates for visitors during a field maneuver re-enactment. Krough is from the non-profit group Fort Norfolk & Frigate Constellation, which specializes in interpreting and educating through living history. Re-enactors from several non-profit groups were on-hand on-board historic Fort Norfolk to portray a unique living history of the Battle of Craney Island, which took place on June 22, 1813 during the War of 1812. A combined force of US Sailors and US Marines from the frigate USS Constellation and Virginia Militia defeated an invading British Force; resulting in a victory for American forces.
