Good evening! The 20th Rgt, VRC is open and recruiting. It is a brand new unit and will be backed by the Union Volunteers organization. I am looking to replicate the Veteran Reserve Corps (formerly the Invalid Corps) at events by demonstrating some of the tasks and duties they would have performed. We will also participate in some fighting, but that is not the main goal of the unit. The VRC enabled those soldiers who were disabled to assist in other functions rather than being discharged (if they met medical requirements). This included guard/sentry duty, stewards, hospital aides, assistant cooks. The uniform is fairly easy to acquire *sky blue trousers, VRC jacket (avail at several vendors)*. Please PM me or email me ([email protected]) for more info.
 
I wish you success in forming this unit. I have always thought that the VCR uniform was good looking. The light blue with dark blue trim was in my opinion n attractive and practical uniform.
 
Where are you based? I have always thought that the original VRC was a great organization since it gave people like myself the opportunity to serve their country.
